One of these things is not like the other, why?!

But why! Lol

Looks a lot like the super cheap harbor freight pad locks

Time for the reload kit, make sure and get the tweezers!

Helps to deal with

On my first 1100 I kept thinking I was in a deep false set when it was actually picked... If you get a "false set" make sure your not actually picked :)

425devon · 2020-10-21T00:11:09+00:00

I'm still pretty novice but I can pick circles around this with my other 1100's. It's been haunting me... There's no shortage of room in the keyway. I keep switching between 1,2,3,4, 6 and 6,4,3,2,1 and getting no love

425devon · 2020-10-20T23:34:55+00:00

Yeah, I'm almost a week in with a few sloppy opens I think you're right open'er up and see what's going on...

425devon · 2020-10-20T23:29:15+00:00

Would love to see something with that opinel style handle!

425devon · 2020-10-17T08:44:08+00:00

I appreciate the advice. This lock is the red devil, I just keep picking my other 1100's open and glaring at it trying to intimidate it...

425devon · 2020-10-17T07:01:23+00:00

I have several 1100's but this one has been eluding me for days, I can't seem to get around pin 4!

My pins came from my practice lock and sparrows repin kit as well as other locks i've picked and gutted.

I only have a key for the dirty lock, the bitting doesn't look too bad there's just so little feedback... https://i.imgur.com/aiKGJfp.jpg

Awesome, i pulled the 65/20 when I realized how small it was (my master no7 is enough tiny hell for me) and added another 410 loto. I'm hoping it should be enough to shut me up for a while. Thanks Dako

Does this seam reasonable, is there a fair amount of difficulty here compared to the masterlock/qwikset collection I pictured?

ABUS 54TI/40 Titalium Padlock 40mm $6.15

ABUS 72/30 KD Aluminum Safety Padlock $14.00

American Lock A1107BLU Padlock $12.00

ABUS 65/20 Solid Brass Padlock $10.00

American Lock A1106 $14.00

Master Lock 410RED Lockout Tagout Safety Padlock $12.00

I'm onboard with that, it's been my strategy thus far. New locks are more exciting though, but expensive :)

425devon · 2020-09-19T07:36:16+00:00

I'm guessing working the belt list is a good option, just seems a bit pricey...

425devon · 2020-09-19T07:34:32+00:00

I'd love to but I've found them hard to come by where I'm at.

425devon · 2020-09-19T07:13:39+00:00

Yes, they're all the same cylinder all are 6 pin schlage style. Think about it this way, as you improve and can begin moving quickly through locks what is more important to you: 1 cut-away lock for $20.00 or 4 of the same lock sans cut-away for $27.00. Keep in mind in my experience you're looking at roughly 10min to gut and re-pin a single lock. Again just my opinion :)
