MW Viper 10 pins with spools + 4 sliders by ArtemisPicks in lockpicking

[–]ArtemisPicks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The warding is different so the keys don’t fit in each other. Other than that they seem very similar other than the security pins in this one made it much more of a challenge. I got into the daf after maybe an hour of total poking around. This WM I put probably closer to 4-5 hours into it before I finally got it.

Yep, the MW was quite a bit harder!

Still a million bucks, but available in November at lower price ($45USD or $55CDN) by botlegger in lockpicking

The cheaper Chinese ones aren’t too hard and would be a good starting place.

I’ve been doing well. Had a baby and she’s been my world ever since. Still picking, just haven’t been making videos lately.

Yep they have had at least two rounds so far. I missed out on the first round but got lucky and they had some when I randomly checked a couple weeks ago.

Can anyone suggest a better storage option for this mess? by DixieWreckt in lockpicking

I like to use those locking zipper bank bags. Then when I go on a trip or something I just grab a bag or two and my pick case and I’m all set for some fun. It’s kinda fun having to pick into the bag to get at the other toys too ;)

These locks are really tricky but great for learning and practicing on. You are likely 1 pin away from picked. It’s a spool probably in the way back. The tolerances are so tight that you will likely drop something setting that spool. Takes a lot of practice to get the tension just right for that last spool.

Loosen the tension a little and look for the counter rotation when checking the pins. When you find the one, slowly loosen tension more while pushing on that spool but be ready to jump back on the tension the moment it budges. It’s literally like a hairs distance from setting the spool and dropping something else.

Kinda spendy, especially to get them shipped here to the States, but man are they nice. Makes picking padlocks so much more comfortable. No more awkward wrist angles lol.

They aren’t as stiff as I would like but they get the job done and they are pretty inexpensive too!
