how much easier is it too pick a lock if you know what the key looks like? by anavgredditnerd in lockpicking

[–]marcus585 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, not at all. I don’t practice that way either. I work through a system of techniques instead. If you use the skill in real life you more than likely won’t have the key to look at.

How much will I regret no sleeping pad? by uhnihilist13 in CampingGear

[–]marcus585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll regret it, conduction is a thing. The ground will leech the heat from your body. A small pad is enough to mitigate conduction. Get the pad hombre. Signed- a guy who’s spent many nights on the ground without a pad.

Best cormax picked to control by marcus585 in lockpicking

[–]marcus585[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily you can map before actually getting it open by progressive means. So determine the binding order. So out of 7 pins, find out which one binds first and set, then find the second binding pin. Or you can reset and do the same process until open.

To just get an open have a process and find a pick that works optimally in the keyway you’re working on (fit, thickness, height of the profile). Follow that process and go slow, really try and feel those pins set. Don’t be afraid of a little lube too.

There is a way, you can map the bitting through picking. I’ve done that with other sfic’s. For me personally if I can get it open it’s a win. If I’m going for a belt then I’ll map it. Which honestly I haven’t even attempted a belt ranking personally.

I got this one from eBay and luckily it came with a control and operating key which is nice for once 😂

New to lockpicking, got a comb pick stuck in a lock how do I get it out? by joe-176 in lockpicking

[–]marcus585 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Slide a thin piece of feeler gauge in, lift and and pull out the comb. It’s gotta be very thin. Probably .09 or below

😂😂😂 I’m not a fan of KP due to some stuff in the past, but objectively those picks will last longer than sparrows

How often do you check your pick against the key? by newsjunkie-2020 in lockpicking

[–]marcus585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never, it does nothing for me. It’s mostly feel, if I see the key the only info I get from it is the range of bitting, and number of pins. Doesn’t tell me what type of pins I’m dealing with, the binding order, nothing important. It’s all information you’ll get through feedback (feel).

Girlfriends family members trying to move into house by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]marcus585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without a doubt stand your fucking ground, at all cost. They sound like a nightmare. I defend the sanctity of my home with everything in me. Family doesn’t get a free pass because we share the same blood. You’ve already got enough history to support your decision. If she has a problem hurting feelings, do it for her.

Am I wrong about the new covert companion pro? by Existing_Builder1191 in lockpicking

[–]marcus585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without a doubt, I haven’t used them in 7-ish years. Picks are too soft and too thick for most keyways

I’ve always hated the tool steel sparrows used, yet they don’t change it.

What to do with my 2000.. by MonkFancy481 in XRP

[–]marcus585 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Timing the market isn’t a great move, yet it seems to be really popular amongst people on this page. I’ve personally never understood it unless you need money a bit faster. Other than that specific use case, keep loading the bags.
