Very clear camera work, and brilliant picking of a fairly rare tubular lock. I would think this is possibly a first on camera. Loved the video, well done.

The tubular pin in pin was Chicago Lock Company’s temporary solution circa 1970’s until they developed the Tubar Lock. In perspective there were crude tubular picks made from pipe nipples and rubber bands used by the bad guys and pin in pin was a solution. The end of the patents for tubular locks caused copy cats. Tubar was probably mid 1980’s as the vending lock to compete with Medeco. Medeco has had key breakage problems as vending people are in and out often and big rings of heavy keys caused stress and the deep number 6 cut was where most would break off. Tubar is superior.

What an amazing Pick~! That was a real yarn! I loved it! Thanks for sharing!

Wow, great find and superb picking. It's quite an exhausting job to completely open it by picked it three times. Guess the binding order will differ after each turn. Interesting that a complicated tool was made for a lock which is rarely seen.

+Potti314 Thanks. As for multiple picking... the good news is that one position (top) is disabled because there's no driver pin, and only every other position engages the pin in pin functionality. As such, subsequent pickings are a little easier. In addition, you can always try the business card trick. But you are right that picking one of these in the wild would likely be a chore.

+waddac2 Thank you. It's definitely worth getting a tension tool IMO for things like ACE II that are not susceptible to impressioning attacks. Alternately, for locks like that, try a large wiper insert between the notches in the core and housing. It will let you pick one position, after which you can use your tool to impression the key when its in between pins. As always, thanks for watching and commenting!

@waddac2

+LockPickingLawyer So would you bend the wiper insert into a "U" type shape and file one end to fit the notch then other end to fit outer circle part?

@lockpickinglawyer

8 жыл бұрын

waddac2 No... just use a standard wide wiper insert tension tool. Stick the tip in such that it makes contact with the inside of the notch in the lock body and notch in the core. Then apply tension... usually heavy tension is required. I experimented with this and it works ok, but a dedicated tool is much better.

LockPickingLawyer Do you know what model of lock this is?

As a sub-armature; been picking and learning for 2 months and making fairly good progress. I thank you for your videos they are very informative. I have been concentrating on relatively simple locks so far. I thought you might have a tip or two on developing my "feel" I can isolate pins (knowing I am on 3,4 or 5 pin(s)). Trouble is feeling a bind or other feed back from a pin. I have a mulitpick set and 4 cheapo sets. Mulipick is great but the handles are sharp, other sets have a plastic handle, but business ends are awful. After all that my thinking lead me to dip the handle of the multipicks In a rubber compound like found on wire cutter handles. Would doing this dampen the feel? The feedback is were I having trouble, any tricks practicing reading what I am feeling. I did surgery for 20 years so I have good sense of feel even when I cannot see with my eye my brain sees it for me, if that makes sense. I try and practice 2-3 hours most days never picking the same lock twice I have even made some of my own picks from .025 to .05 thou from stainless shim stock as well. Yes I am a machinist as well, sounds weird surgeon machinist (don't ask). Sorry I did not have the time to write a shorter comment.

That's an interesting lock! Who makes the tension wrench you're using, I've been looking for one. An old Sparrows wrench that is not made any more perhaps?

Thanks. The tension wrench is sold at USALockPicks.com

On the cigarette automates in Germany there are two locks and one of them actually spark my interest. It just had an omega Symbol on it like i would expect from famous clocks

a question: what if the lock doesnt have that notch to put the tension tool? where you put tension?

Absolutely fascinating! Keep in mind that I've just read and heard of this method so I have no idea if or how well it actually works Do you think it would be possible to impression it after you've picked it the first time? I am talking about the whole business card with a bit of duct tape on the edge forced into to lock thing so you don't have to pick it twice more. Thanks!

@lockpickinglawyer

7 жыл бұрын

Thanks. No idea about impressioning it. If it works, it would sure beat picking it several times! But remember this -- the out pins one have to be picked every other position. That would make it go a bit faster.

Are you applying pressure with the tool used to turn the lock in your left hand? As to keep to pins locked down in place? Or no?

I love watching your videos. I have a few questions... If you don't mind saying, approximately how much did this eBay collection cost you? Also, in another comment, you mentioned the "business card trick" in relation to triple picking this lock to get a full one-quarter turn. What is the "business card trick" ? Oh, and, was there only the one, or did the collection include more than one of these "pin-in-pin" locks?

@lockpickinglawyer

6 жыл бұрын

I don’t remember the cost, but about $.50 per Lock. It was cheap. That was the only pin in pin lock in the collection. Business card trick is a form of impressioning a key... roll it up and shove it into the keyway. 👍

Nice find. So how touchy are those pin in pins? Do you think it'd impression plastic or card stock after the first pick so you only had to pick once to get a "true" open if it was in use.

Where do I get that tubular tension tool?

We bought ABACO tubular cam lock before, it is also high security lock with anti-picking function, I think the price is cheaper than this one.

Are those the locks that were defeated using the end of a pen?

Kind of a strange request. Just bought an old slot machine. Doesn't have a key. It has a 7.8mm tubular barrel lock. I tried picking it with no luck. Can you recommend a pick tool set?

Is this the most difficult pick that you've done on this channel?

After watching the video I think I was over setting stuff often causing it to lock up. That and I'm pretty sure they are spools in there, which I've just learned a few weeks ago. I've been making lots of locks though if your interested in any. My lock making skill seems to far exceed my picking skills at the moment.

trevor pierce What tubular locks are you working on? I've never seen a tubular lock with spools... only serrated pins. It's usually pretty easy to tell when the pins are set. They go from bound up to being springy with a tiny, tiny bit of travel. As for locks you made (challenge locks), PM me when you are ready and we can work the details of a trade out.
