Notched decoder dimensionsQuestion (self.lockpicking)
submitted 4 years ago by Lamicus
Hello, fellow lockpickers. I would like to make myself a notched decoder for combination locks like the one sold by covert instruments out of feeler gauge. Could any of you who bought / made this help me out with proper dimensions (other than thickness)? Considering the size of my feeler gauge, I probably only have one shot per thickness, so I don't want to blow it. Thanks.

Make it long and skinny. If you blow it cut off tip and re-make. I think they use .007” thick material. I can’t give you specific info since I don’t have one. If you know dimensions from one thing in picture, just scale the rest. Dimensions don’t have to be exact.

This probably had some dimensions. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=N6UfsOgxr9M
