Very enjoyable, and certainly keeps me paying attention to tensioning and pick control

Pick begins at 1:40, open at 4:20, pins at 12:00(34) American Lock talk-through with customised 1106Pickin’ Rick2022-03-25 | Apologies for the long video, but here is an in depth look at picking on American Lock AL series, using a customised AL1106. I try and feature as much information as I can, and tried to resist editing as much as possible. Sadly, it took a bit longer to pick than I planned, as the angle I had to sit at to be able to record was horrendous, and greatly impacted my movements. Hopefully this video will still be useful to some people who struggle with American locks, and enjoy the wrench fails as well xD

The #CoxysSecurefastChallenge (pass around lock), is for those persons interested in this challenge to find the lock’s entry code, and then to share and pass on the lock to others. There are rules for how CoxysPicks challenge lock can be passed on, and to whom below.
RULES: 1 To be passed on to others with YouTube channels active in the locksport community. 2 Once decoded, to change the code as shown in Coxys video “Securefast Combination Lock – Pass Around Instructions”. Write the code down and put it in an envelope for the next person. 3 You have two weeks from the time this lock arrives, to decode and share this lock, or pass it on. 3 Use the hashtag #CoxysSecurefastChallenge when posting your video, so these are easier for CoxysPicks and everyone else to find. 4 Name the next person you want to send out this lock to in your video. A book has been been enclosed with his lock, so it can show where and whom it has been to, along with how they did. 5 Send out the lock via tracked post, so it shouldn’t get lost in the postal system. 6 Lastly, just have fun decoding the lock!! 😊(32) #26 Black Widow CL by BoyBilbo81 - Pick and GutPickin’ Rick2022-01-29 | After my impromptu hiatus, here is a pick and gut of BoyBilbo81's #26 Challenge Lock - Black Widow.
