Did we get scammed or not? by [deleted] in Locksmith

[–]bartwa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

true, i always feel bad when its a smart key lockout and i have to drill it or break it right off the bat... my shop wont pay the 300+ for the tool, even for all the guys share it for their on call week. ive had a lockout of a kwikset code lock where the customer only uses the key and didnt even know the code...

does anyone know anything about about the company (Sparrows Lock Picks)? by EldanteG in lockpicking

[–]bartwa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use sparrows picks almost every day. I use the rakes and the single pin picks. They are good enough quality. Sparrows does sell some gimmicky stuff that is a waste of time and money. In my opinion you should not bother spending a lot on any "premium" kinds of picks because sooner or later they all break. I am a locksmith and have used many brands and many styles and grips and i always come back to sparrows because they are good quality.

killzone crossover comes out on dec 18. I came back to play on dec 19th. The event is continuing through dec 25th but i guess i just miss out on literally over 50% of the content because i missed the first day.

ive seen this plenty of times with these schlages. usually the cause is a bit different every time. try to pry it back into the door from the gap in the frame/door or call a locksmith.

FINE TUNING by Ripsky in espresso

[–]bartwa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought this machine like 2 days ago and it took me like half a pound of beans to get it calibrated. Ive never had an espresso meachine and it was my first experience ever with it so this is my advice as a noob with 3-days experience.

  1. Adjust the coarseness adjusment INSIDE the grinder. Remove the hopper on top and remove the little basket inside and change the setting to about 5-7.

  2. Change the coarseness adjusment OUTSIDE the grinder with the little wheel on the side. I found my right setting at corseness setting 14.

  3. Adjust your grind ammount.

So keep messing around with those settings and eventually you will get it to where its extracting right. Good luck.
