Uploaded July 2023 | Updated September 2026, 1 hour ago
This example of Alpha FB has 12 pins in 4 rows. The key pins are over set traps and the drivers are all HPC style mushroom spools. Lots of core movement, and it was easy to drop stuff. Oversets feel like they are inevitable. Don't be daunted just flutter tension. It felt forgiving compared to most HPC locks I have picked. Cheers and thanks for stopping by

Tierkey Fuki in this example is 17 pins in 3 rows. Each side has a row of 6 pins and the top has a row of 5 pins. This was on loan so I didnt want to gut it unless I had to. Felt like typical 3 row high pin count locks with spools on med/high lifts. Thanks for watching and cheers

Lucznik Archer is a 6 pin lock with tapered and spooled drivers pins. The keyway is also a bit of a challenge. I found it to be an enjoyable picking experience anyway. Thanks for watching and cheers.

Today we have a keyless keso. I do not know the model. Looks like the same profile as Lips/keso 1000, ect. Just with 9 pins instead of the normal 14+. Picking was strait forward for me and was a rather fun pick. Cheers and thanks for watching

Today we have a Lixil/showa WS reverse sidebar lock. With 7 sprung sliders from 2 directions. My method to pick was to add shims and some rubber. This helped hold the sliders in place as I picked them. The spring in the sliders is stronger then the springs in the sidebar. Shout out to @westlockpicking for the inspiration for the method. Thanks for watching and cheers.
