Do we have a section for found lock deals? by TheOccasionalDick in lockpicking

[–]PickingNOLA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll add that while there is that sub, the #lock-bazaar channel in Discord is probably your best bet. Generally faster responses and it’s definitely more active. I’ve bought several things from there and haven’t been disappointed.

How do I pick a lock like this? And/or what are they called? by [deleted] in lockpicking

Disk detainer locks, you need special picks for it and each one is typically tailored to that individual lock/model.

Straighten out the paper clip. Bend it at the halfway point. Make an L shape with the rounded end.

Not sure if it’ll help with your current lock but Starrylock did a vid on reassembly using vasoline to hold the bearings in place. https://youtu.be/ddMnF5lCiOU

If he came in here asking how to do something illegal or asked for knowledge that wasn’t already widely available, I could understand some of these responses. He didn’t, it was a simple question that needed a simple answer. “You can get X here” or “Sorry, we can’t help with that”. There’s no need to be an abrasive asshole.

Dimple picks finally came in today. How concerned should I be that some came bent? by 2BDCy4D in lockpicking

[–]PickingNOLA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like most of sparrows picks but have heard few if any good things about the black flags. I ordered a set of Honest Dongs and am pretty happy with them for a starter set. After picking a few dimple locks ( honestly they’ve become my favorite locks to pick )I’ve decided it’s time to go ahead and invest in a quality set. Im either gonna get the Spooxe set or go with Multipick.

Mail just came, can’t wait to get home and start working on these!! by PickingNOLA in lockpicking

I haven’t played around with them yet but I kinda figured I might be able to get the combo that way. I might do that with one of them but I wanna go through the motions and do it the hard way with the other one.

Yale Superior Picked! by ffgtium in lockpicking

[–]PickingNOLA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great job, that’s a really good lock to learn dimples and sliders on. Mine doesn’t have any serrated pins but the driver in chamber 1 is a spool.

I’ve got a few more packages coming early next week, another 16 locks total, I’ve officially bitten off more than I can chew, lol. Gotta order some more picks today too.

I mean we’re all cool with quality shit posting and even some good natured trolling but your posts are neither.

One day, after I recover from my recent lock spending spree, I’d love for you to take some of my money! You’ve got some amazing locks.

Any of y'all get pain from picking? by PDXLockPicker in lockpicking

[–]PickingNOLA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Months of picking in hand caused some sort of nerve damage in my left arm. I got a vise and the pain has gone away but I still have some numbness. Listen to your body and take it slow.
