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.

Lockman MegaCross is a 9 pin lock with 4 sharp mushroom drivers on diagonal top right and 5 pyramid drivers on the left. I am somewhat floating the pyramid drivers to move them without hanging on every edge of the driver pin. Really fun to pick IMHO

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.
