This example of UShin Showa pin tumbler lock has 6 pins. Max lifts on the thicker lipped spool model seems to have standards. Rest are spools and they are not really deep. Keyway can be tricky look for the wholes on the right side for the pins to travel in. Cheers and thanks for watching

GeGe Mrt is a magnetic safe deposit lock. It has 4 rotors that align to allow a plunder to drop. The plunder is spring loaded, the rotors like to move as you move other rotors. Tension is a tricky game with this lock.

Today we have a Northern Telecom NE-22. This lock has 6 levers with false gates. It also has a divider in the middle of the lever pack. The plug is up against the lever pack under tension in neutral so tooling was a hurdle for a while. Also note the plug is separate from the cam for extra fun tensioning. Sorry for the curses it was the end of a long hungry day and a difficult task. (I am human not a machine see) lol 🤣☕ Cheers and thanks for stopping by☕

This example of Kromer Protector was made in mid 60s. Serial number 484742. Inside is 11 wafers. 10 sprung wafers and the 11th being a split wafer that is does not use a spring. All elements act the definition of Tapered. So much so that one of the best ways to fight it was compressing the wafer pack. This however muddied the feedback a lot.
This lock is rare, collectable, and hard to replace. So I didnt want to risk damaging anything. I have access to the same method as West Lockpicking and DoNotDuplicate. So in the spirit of locksport Im using as close to their method as possible. 2mm wire and basic tools. Im not risking epoxy ect on a loaned lock this exceptional.
This is the battle raw and learning on the fly. Thanks for watching.

Big thanks to WestLockPicking for the opportunity for even thinking of sending this gem of a lock out, and all the rest. Cheers and thanks

This example of Royal Guardian has 5 top stacks that are pin in pin. A little different than MTL for the pin in pin drivers. The side stacks are 4 trap pins that felt much harder to get right than the top stack. Thanks for watching and cheers
