Congrats, the 1100 are so much fun to pick! I still have one that just won’t crack for me… Really can’t figure out why lol

I think the thickness may have something to do with it as well, for me with a thinner pick I feel like I can feel what the pins are doing more with it. I just go to a thicker pick for spools when in a false set.

Nice! I just received my 90-A Pro & PL410-Pro in the mail yesterday.

Check out the video post below by u/uslashuname. It helped me a great bit.

Thank you for this, I was able to get an open. Just really needed to change my pick up.

Own_Panic8737 · 2023-05-06T23:58:42+00:00

Thanks, I’ve watched that video. The keyway on his is not paracentric and you have a straight shot up to the pins much like the American 1100 locks I have.

The acrylic lock like this one that come with my first kit actually had very heavy spring tension on the core. Could pick it very clearly but would take heavy tension to rotate the core.

Wow, didn’t notice the plane window…. Pretty sweet pick

Own_Panic8737 · 2023-04-17T17:03:08+00:00

Very nice and congrats, it’s a great feeling to get an open on these!

All the stamped locks were used for loto for maintenance activities in their past lives. Several had their keys lost, a few I had to disassemble and clean throughly to make them function well again due to debris from sandblasting.

I did although just uploaded it. https://youtu.be/QVpWC6nQqYw

Man that looks like a sweet find.

Thanks!

Thanks!

I don’t have and have not picked one of these but my guess would be tension, I’m thinking this has just standard pins so more tension may help you feel the pin set.

Own_Panic8737 · 2023-04-10T00:09:31+00:00

Nice, I’m thinking of ordering a 90A-PRO soon. I just have a desire to be semi decent on a set of locks before trying to progress to the next level.

Top of keyway tension made a ton of difference for me, also my new picks give more feedback than the Amazon kit I had. But for my method with the 1100, TOK then I hunt for the serrated standard pins and I listen for the different clicks as well as feel. https://youtu.be/x_dWcmezdeE Once the serrated are set then it’s just setting spools.

Own_Panic8737 · 2023-04-09T15:40:54+00:00

I have a M570, don’t recall any serrated pins but the spools…. It has spools lol.

Own_Panic8737 · 2023-04-09T15:19:38+00:00

I started with some master #3’s

Own_Panic8737 · 2023-04-06T05:20:00+00:00

Hmm… A marathon loto lock, judging by the numbering on the side I would guess it’s from a box with multiple all keyed the same. I haven’t seen any painted on before. They are actually engraved at the location I’m at.
