- ryukafalz 4y agoBeat me to it. Yeah, the idea of separating the input step from the test step is something that was done in that lock as well.
- asojfdowgh 4y agoIts the standard procedure for "unpickable" locks before SMH's lock too.
- timhh 4y agoYeah same idea behind my lock too: https://youtu.be/7hUonUE1hEY https://youtu.be/7hUonUE1hEY I'd guess many many people have had this same idea.
- jonah 4y agoYours is so much simpler and more elegant. Thanks for sharing. Beautiful.
- timhh 4y agoThanks!
- mgdlbp 4y agoAccording to the video's pinned comment thread, that lock was sent to LockPickingLayer a few months ago, who never responded. I suppose, from my cousin comment, that it's with the other locks LPL can't pick yet.
- timhh 4y agoYeah. In fairness someone did link a method that I think could my lock (and this one). Basically you attach a laser to it so you can very accurately tell how far the key turned. That gives you a way to test the pins even though you can't directly manipulate them. Very very tedious though and I never tried it.
- MivLives 4y agoLPL Did both the locks in video 1299: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ecy1FBdCRbQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ecy1FBdCRbQ
- cududa 4y agoI quite liked your version. Seems a bit more robust but I know nothing about this space and perhaps it was just that your presentation was fascinating
- fmx 4y agoIt certainly seems like a simpler, cleaner design. So did LPL try to pick it? (Edit: I see you wrote elsewhere in the thread that he never replied.)
- gonehome 4y agoThere’s also a lock on that channel he can’t pick - the bowley I think? It has a wild key design.
- TrumpRapedWomen 4y agoHe can't pick the Abloy Protect2 lock. Less than 10 people in the world can pick it actually.
- chx 4y agoThe Bowley has been picked last year. https://youtu.be/ai5Hf-wPXFE https://youtu.be/ai5Hf-wPXFE and he mentions it's a collaboration at 4:29.
- chongli 4y agoI think he has a whole box full of locks he can't pick. He usually doesn't show a lock until he has mastered picking it.
- HWR_14 4y agoHe showed the Bowley before he could pick it. Although he claims that box is locks he can't pick yet.
- julienfr112 4y agoStuffaMadeHere used friction to keep pin in place between setting and testing. Here, he used many small pin to translate to a discrete combination. Quite different ! And I think more resistant to wear for a real word application.
