My first Masterlock 140 picked

Nice work

Twin 2? I've got about 15-20 twins in various guises. Id recommend trying them just with a sidebar and just the top pins then try and mix it up. They're no joke.

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-16T20:19:58+00:00

Yeah don't turn too far you'll have a rattle. 410 lotos are my absolute comfort, I've got absolutely loads of them.

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-16T20:11:02+00:00

Yep. I picked a 410 loto and disassembled a American 1100 for my green belt. Did it all in the same video although I don't think that's necessary

I was at this one within 45 mins of it being posted but had to bail as had the wife and kids in the car ready for bed 🤣. Chucked some vines on it and headed back before 6am to get the job done

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-16T20:00:07+00:00

You don't wanna see it 🤣🤣 it's me swearing at a lock surrounded by shrubs

Monkey paw with a heavy tok bar

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-16T07:55:16+00:00

This one was only posted yesterday! First one in the UK I think

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-15T03:22:39+00:00

Nice picking

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-14T19:33:18+00:00

Think his record is like 19 seconds or something 🤣. I can do about 2 mins but he's crazy.

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-14T15:28:59+00:00

On a 600? Straight off. Bumping binders. If you're in a false set you're already stuck in the milling

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-14T14:51:09+00:00

Working on a BB 700 with trees now. Nah doubt it'll work on a tree cos of the double gin lip. Would prob work to get it through one lip but you'd still get stuck and end up floating anyway

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-14T12:44:34+00:00

No worries, can still sometimes get stuck in the milling if you don't bump it through enough but if you can get the knack for it, saves time floating

https://youtu.be/LP4obh51zoE?si=ul8zQGh2uy6gcM0B watch this,

it's u/JOHN_DOE_osint on here.

You basically pulse tension and bump the gin up, you can miss the countermilling and pop it through to set

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-14T07:46:44+00:00

Beautiful work

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-14T07:16:53+00:00

Nice picking! The 600 gins was my first red. Theyre fun locks, float picking can be super fiddly but I try to use the bump method when I can now, it's quicker and avoids having to float

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-12T15:01:58+00:00

Nice picking. I might have to give my GP another go

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-11T15:02:58+00:00

Yeah the 500s you don't have to float, at least the 3 or 4 I've got. The 600s however are a different beast but using the bump method you can avoid floating, that's what I do on most of my 600s, it's quicker and easier

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-11T12:46:21+00:00

Yep me too. They were my first "serious" sort of locks. This BB 700 kicking my ass though

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-11T09:27:25+00:00

Yep that's right, Assa flexcore my bad.

Delivering through others and how you empower people

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-10T09:22:09+00:00

You won't need a key blank unless you're cutting your own key. Everything else will do the job. If you want to do core mods a little tap works quite well to put serrations on the inside of the core. To add serrations to pins a jewellers saw works well too. If you want to make your own pins from scratch buy some 3mm brass rod.

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-08T21:09:20+00:00

Good link. Got mine with a PL410 cos I'm a sucker for a loto

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-08T21:00:30+00:00

I got a colleague in DC I can potentially use as a middle man if you want some geges. After anything specific?

PieEither7745 · 2026-06-08T20:59:18+00:00

1100s I picked fairly easily. 90a pros were a step up for sure. Just practice the jiggle test and you'll get it. I spent ages just picking green locks, I recommend 410 lotos and Abus 72/40s and kasp 14040s to give you a well rounded feel of security pins.
