It is a fun and frustrating pick and even though i got it open fairly quickly in the video, it wasn't my 1st, 2nd, 3rd or even 4th attempt, i think i was in double figures before i finally cracked it. it was a lot of fun indeed and thank you Michael for this great lock. i hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching!077 Baldwin 6 Pin Rim/Mortice SPPd & Gutted (thanks to Texas Jim)crispey bear2016-03-16 | Thanks to Jim for this fun little lock, it's a 6 pin rim or mortice, wherever you're from and which ever you call it. it's a fun pick and full of feedback. i forgot to show the key in the plug so took a picture of it which you can see at the end of the video if you're interested. please like, subscribe and comment and thank you very much for watching!076 Ruko Euro 5 Pin SPPd & Guttedcrispey bear2016-03-13 | Further to my vids on Assa pins i thought i'd pick this new Euro Thumbturn on cam as it does have new style Assa pins and it would be remiss of me not to mention Ruko at all. it's not a hard pick (and i have picked it off cam) if you follow the binding pins which you can feel as they give the most resistance when you try and lift them, then once you're done with the binders and you get a little turn on the core follow the feedback and you will get there. they're fun locks Ruko's and even though mostly 5 pinners you'll find they have crazy bitting and can keep you occupied for a good while ;D cheers075 Master Lockout Padlock SPPd Out Of The Packet (thanks to Charlie Philippe!!)crispey bear2016-03-13 | i received this lock from Charlie Philippe in Canada. we exchanged several emails about the Master Lockout Padlock and i was under the impression there was an issue with it. it turns out the lock is behaving like all the other lockout padlocks i have opened in the past, maybe a little crunchy when you put a pick in it but otherwise all good so i may of mis-understood that bit. anyway, i hope this vid helps Charlie and many thanks again for the lock bud ;)074 My GeGe Explanation, 3 x GeGes Picked 1 x Gutted (as requested by a few of you)crispey bear2016-03-09 | so, after a request by Javid (and reiterated by a few others in the comments) to do a video about GeGe's similar to the one i did on Assa's, here is what i came up with. as with the assa's, this is only my take on GeGe's and i'm in no way an expert on them and this isn't a tutorial, i'm just trying to offer a little help if i can. i hope you enjoy and some of you find it interesting, and as always i welcome comments and questions and maybe we can all help each other. cheers guys073 BKS Euro 6 Pin SPPd & Gutted (Thanks To Potti314)crispey bear2016-03-06 | This really interesting lock was sent to me by Potti314 (visit his channel here - youtube.com/user/Potti314/feed), it is a normal pin tumbler but has a reversable key. i SPP and gut this great lock, which is a real fun pick, to reveal some lovely pins. this was the second vid i made, the first was blighted by the steel clips, yes that clips plural, which took me 3.30 mins to get them off so rather than carry on i started over.....hope you enjoy and thanks for watching!072 Nasty Screw In Mortice/Rim Cylinder Lock SPPd & Gutted (Thanks to Hugo)crispey bear2016-03-06 | i got these from Hugo Martell in a swap we did around christmas, so thanks to him for sending these to me. in this vis i thought i'd give the one that has 'nasty' scratched into it, other than that i have no other name for this rim or screw in mortice cylinder (depending on where you are and what you call it), hope you enjoy!071 WB Wilson Bohannan 5 Pin Padlock (thanks to Potti314!)crispey bear2016-03-04 | i was sent this wonderful WB brass padlock by Potti314 (Michael's channel youtube.com/user/Potti314/feed), so thanks to him for this great padlock. although i got this open fairly quickly it definitely put up a fight for about 20 mins before i made this video. hope you enjoy, cheers070 Re working & Re using Bent PETERSON Picks not a picking vidcrispey bear2016-02-29 | not a picking video! so i had 5 quite bent Peterson picks, in fact they were useless so rather than throw them away i thought i'd see if extreme heat would bring them back to life....and it did! well all apart from the spring steel grey handle pick, the metal became too brittle and snapped. the rest though, the blue, black and purple handled ones are nearly as good as new. so if you punish your picks like i do, then give them a new lease of life after watching the vid. i hope someone finds this useful, i thought i'd share it as picks can be pricey and this seems to be a great stop gap if like me you need to save up for new ones...cheers!
i must say, please do this at your own risk, i will not be held responsible for anything anyone else does :)069 Assas Part 2 Mortice 6 Pin SPPd & Gutted, Old Style Pins, Counter Milling (my take not tut)crispey bear2016-02-28 | REMINDER FIRST - For Chance To Get The Lock In 068 DOM Euro (BY MiniPotti), let me know by Sunday 28th Feb at 9pm GMT....CHEERS!
so this is my take on ‘Assa pins’ explored Part 2 vid. this 6 pin mortice has old style Assa pins and Counter-Milling, very tricky but fun. i’m not going to go on about it here, watch the vid and get in touch with comments if you have something to add or have any questions. i hope this helps somebody to shine a light on picking these locks but like with most Assa’s they’re all different and never easy and this video is just my take on them, as i mention in the vid, i'm not a teacher and this isn't a tutorial. hope you enjoy and find it useful, cheers068 DOM 5 Pin Challenge Lock SPPd & Gutted Thanks to MiniPotti for the lock!crispey bear2016-02-26 | WILL BE GIVING THIS LOCK AWAY - LEAVE A COMMENT IN BRACKETS - I DRAW NUMBERS OUT OF A HAT AND SEND IT OUT ok, so i was sent this challenge lock by MiniPotti (here you can visit Potti314 - youtube.com/channel/UCSCUS_rVVks_NKookFW9m4A), it’s a Dom and it’s tricky. MiniPotti certainly has a special talent when it comes to locks and he seems to be taking it out on me lol. i’m grateful for the lock, Danke Seb and keep up the good work! anyway, i’m guessing there are some of you who would like to have a go on one of Seb’s locks, so please leave something in brackets by your comment and i’ll pick a number at random and get the lock out to you. i don’t mind where you live, all good as i’m happy to shoot this to wherever it needs to go. i will be doing a few more in some future vids too so keep an eye out. i will give you a few days, like sunday 28th about 9pm gmt. any Q’s let me know067 Assa Euro 5 Pin SPPd & Gutted Part 1 of working out new style assa pinscrispey bear2016-02-25 | after a few discussions about Assa pins and 2 or 3 requests to dig a little deeper and try and explain the process i use when dealing with Assa pins i thought i’d make a couple of videos about tackling them. this is part 1, i will do parts 2 and 3 down the line. this video covers the euro pins, i say that as all Assa’s seem to pick differently, some you need hard tension, some not so, so it really depends on a few things before you can make your decision to tackle them. in the euro you can lay on the tension and gently run your pick through the lock and it will give you an instant idea of what the key is like, this doesn’t work on all of them but def worth trying as it’s a helping hand from the start and from there, gently feel around the pins, not pushing, just brushing and before you know it you have collected 4 tiny clicks and 4 set pins. then it’s a case of not oversetting and finding the final pin to crack the lock (in this example but as mentioned they seem to pick differently). now, this method only works on some Assa’s which is why there will be a couple of other vids on other methods and by then i hope that this will of helped a couple of mates to understand what i think and do whilst attacking and hopefully overcoming Assa pins. one final thought with Assa’s, take your time and get on the keypins correctly, it makes a huge difference….thanks!066 Package From Potti314 Michael&Seb. Sebs Challenge Lock SPPd & Gutted & cool audio clip at endcrispey bear2016-02-20 | i got a surprise box of goodies from Potti314 and MiniPotti314 (check Potti314 here - youtube.com/user/Potti314) through the mail the other day. some really interesting, tricky, devious locks from my lovely friends, thank you very much guys i will be busy for a good while with these i can tell already! sorry this vid is a little longer than usual, i waffled on about the locks for a lot longer than i thought or clearly intended to….but they were just so damn interesting i lost track of time, then i also spp’d and gutted a challenge lock from MiniPotti which added a few mins on. also, check out the lyre bird noises i’ve attached to the end of the vid, an explanation to something i refer to during the vid about this bird who can mimic noises, like a chainsaw, 35mm camera, car alarm and construction workers….thanks for watching, hope you enjoy!065 Burg Wächter Gamma 700 SPPd Thanks to Potti314crispey bear2016-02-19 | Just a quick one from me, the Burg Wächter Gamma 700 which was sent to me by Potti314 (visit his channel here - youtube.com/channel/UCSCUS_rVVks_NKookFW9m4A). it's a beautiful padlock with plenty of weight and amazingly engineered.....it's German, so no surprise there.i appreciate the lock Michael, and all the others i got through the post the other day which i'll show in the next vid i upload. that one is 25 mins long, so i'm trying to buy some time from you by just doing a short vid this time round....cheers!064 American SPPd and Guard Padlock SPPd & Gutted Out Of The Box Thanks to Ken DAngelocrispey bear2016-02-12 | so, today i got a great package from Ken Angelo in the US, consisting of an American and a Guard Padlock. I really appreciate these locks buddy, gonna have plenty of fun with them! firstly i pick the American out of the box and quickly realise that i can’t gut it as it has a rivet instead of a retaining screw, so i turned my attention to the Guard, which gave me pause for a minute but i got it in the end and then was able to gut this one on camera. so a double pick out of the box and the gutting of the Guard Padlock. I hope you like the vid and many thanks for watching…..063 American Padlock With 6 Pin Medeco Core 1 Yr Anniversary Lockcrispey bear2016-02-10 | ok, so i bought this Vintage American Padlock, Series 3700 with a 6 Pin Medeco 51s Biaxial Core as it was a year ago today i started picking.

So while explaining the beginnings of my journey i pick them to fill some time, then move on to the American Padlock which i open with a pressie my little sister bought me for christmas but i’ll say no more on that for now, check the vid out!!thanks for watching!! special cheers to you guys, i appreciate your friendships, thank you chaps ;)062 UAP 6 Pin Euro Cyl SPPd & Guttedcrispey bear2016-02-07 | so i’ve got another UAP 6 pin double euro which i’m going to pick and gut. one of the main reasons for doing this video was curiosity, neither Pick Beard or I was sure what was inside this UAP model. UAP can be quite creative in trying to keep us out of their locks and have several anti pick methods in place. although this one doesn’t have the floating trap core and anti pick bar it does have a few tricks up it’s sleeve. i hope you enjoy this vid and if it helps anyone wondering what’s inside them then all good! thanks for watching ;)061 ASSA:RUKO 2 Padlock SPPd & Gutted thanks to Steensy for this incredible giftcrispey bear2016-02-07 | this amazingly beautiful padlock was sent to me as a surprise by Steensy, thank you so much matey, i'm blown away and massively surprised!!! i will treasure this, my first assa ruko padlock. i ordered some original assa pins for another project but i'll have enough to fill this baby too, so i can tastefully pimp it and make it a little trickier in the process. cheers again Steensy bud, i'm very grateful for this great padlock ;D thanks to everyone for checking the vid out!060 Corbin Russwin LFIC 6 Pin Lock SPPd & Gutted thanks to Texas Jimcrispey bear2016-02-03 | another beautiful lock from Texas Jim here today, a Corbin Russian LFIC 6 Pin Lock which i app and gut on camera usually for your amusement but hopefully some pleasure too. i love this lock, as i do mose of them but there’s something really special about this one. thank you very much for watching my vids, i appreciate it…..big time! ;)059 Sargent 6 Pin Mortice Lock SPPd & Gutted thanks for Texas Jimcrispey bear2016-02-01 | ok, so i hit my first real speed bump with Texas Jim’s box of locks that he sent me and it was in the shape of this Sargent 6 Pin Mortice Lock. I a few unsuccessful attempts, for various reasons to get this on camera, so i downed tools in protest and decided to check my messages and emails and to my surprise there was an upload from Redeye opening a…..you guessed it a 6 Pin Sargent, and from Texas Jim, and it was exactly the same as the one giving me some issues. so, i got a drink, sat back and pressed play and paid serious attention to what Redeye was doing. after the vid ended i disregarded my other messages and tried my Sargent off cam and to my joy got it open first time. rushing quickly to reproduce this feat on camera, i set everything up, picking away, chatting to the cam and my wrench falls out, then again next go, then i failed to do it on the next attempt, then the wrench again, so i had accrued several rather funny outtakes of my tantrums at the end. i’m not going to upload them because they are about as rude as you can get and i’m usually such a polite person, this would shatter any illusion you have of me. i’d just like to thank Redeye for the assist, appreciate it bud and Jim for the great challenge that was this Sargent. i hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching!058 Schlage LFIC 6 Pin SPPd & Gutted thanks to Texas Jimcrispey bear2016-01-31 | ok, so today i'm going to open Texas Jim's Schlage LFIC. this is a beautiful lock which Jim sent to me with an operating and control key. this is another of the locks Jim that is now in my collection, i've wanted one of these for months, so i'm very grateful to Jim for another fantastic lock...and hope you enjoy!
