And this isn’t even one of the worst! 😅

Perhaps I have some zero lifts in there… I only see 13 cuts on the key, but non-cuts should be max lift, and I definitely didn’t have any max lifts on the top stack. But it’s also stock as far as I know. 🤷‍♂️ locks are full of mystery.

Thank you!

Keep fighting the fight! I think I also might have gotten a particularly easy one. It’s always a roll of the dice when buying a lock!

And thanks, as usual 😉 😆

Thanks!

theyre made to be combined but yeah the echelon set is sick

From what I understand BosnianBill who was one of the first lockpicking youtubes used the format since then Lockpicking Lawyer used the same format and became the lockpicking youtuber everyone thinks of used that format. Many lockpickers since then used the same format. One of the few lockpickers I can think of who does not number videos is Huxleypig but it is worth noting he posted his first lock video over a year before Bosnian. Another interesting note is that Bosnian used Parentheses instead of the brackets most others use.

One reason is it can really help in directing someone to a video of a particular lock. Perhaps they show off a new model of a lock already picked, or they used a novel opening method (LPL has a few >exceptional< methods, like LPL 545 where he opens one with a microwave - don't try this at home, kids) the numbers make for unambiguous references to specific videos.

I have asthma, and sometimes it acts up more than normal. But since I live with it every day, I don’t notice it as much as others apparently do.

@@DoctorHogmaster No worries, that dude was just an asshole looking for something to be annoyed about.

@@DoctorHogmaster I hardly noticed any more than you'd expect for someone having a microphone right by their face. Some people will just complain about anything.

Thanks! 🍻

@DoctorHogmaster 😍😍

Not an expert or even close to it, so take this with a grain of salt. Many insurance companies will refuse to honour the claims, if there were no signs of forced entry. E.g. a broken window, kicked in door, cut shackles etc. An unpickable lock will ensure that there is always a forced entry (with a few exceptions). Similarly, in some instances the goal isn't to prevent someone from getting past the locked door - it's to ensure that there is evidence of it for other reasons. This is why we have things like tamper-evident technology. It doesn't prevent someone from tampering with stuff - it just ensures there is evidence of it happening.

The cases are rare, but there are some examples I learned about many years ago when I worked at a place that was trying to get a contract for a special government project. They were required to get a kind of electronic dial safe that wasn’t particularly strong against physical attacks, but if you got the combination wrong 3 times it would go into a lockout mode where you had to dial the reactivation combination before you could try the regular combination again. And it was sensitive to “robotic motion” of the dials as well. The point wasn’t that nobody could break into it, but that nobody could get into it secretly. From what I’ve gathered from people I’ve known (in real life), the only “need” based applications for highest level of pick resistance are situations where covert espionage might realistically take place. When the bad actor (or good guy, depending on what side you’re on I suppose) wants to get information (access to a prototype, an air gapped computer, a contract, etc), but really doesn’t want the victim to know that somebody unauthorized now has that information. For most situations where you’re protecting tangible items of value, I don’t think there’s a point in getting out of balance between how long it takes a skilled person to pick something vs break it open destructively. Flimsy sheet steel or wood locked with an unpickable lock won’t protect valuables more than a 3 wall 1/2 “ plate steel safe secured with a master lock when the thief is going for a smash n’ grab. All that said, the marketing opportunity far outweighs the realistic use cases. There could be other examples I don’t know about, of course. But those are the few I’m aware of.

It was just at the end, the way things had to be tapped and nudged over and over again. Otherwise it felt… mushy and weird, haha. 🍻

Thanks! It’s a very creative design, and much trickier than it probably looked in the video.

I’m glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!

My buddy who goes by Georgia Jim had it and picked it first, so I got the benefit of his experience.

@@DoctorHogmaster I already think Jim is a wizard. This just reaffirms my suspicion 🤣

Thanks, I appreciate the opportunity to try your cleverly designed lock! The intro/outro were done by Renderforest.

@@DoctorHogmaster Great lock design and picking! 🔐

When is lpl gonna have a crack, I wanna hear his thoughts.

Because claiming locker is unpickable is arrogance

@whiteeye3453 no? It's been a design practice challenge for years . I watch works by designs video, and you'll see it was the entire opposite of arrogant.

I know… the first one had a video glitch, but also had a few views and comments so I didn’t want to delete it. But my videos get few enough views it probably won’t really matter too much anyway 😄

Well you see, the thing about that is… HEY WHAT’S THAT BEHIND YOU?!? 🏃‍♂️👣👣👣👣👣👣💨

I had just received it in the mail about 30 minutes before I recorded the video. But I got a head start by watching Georgia Jim’s video, since he picked it first.

He also watched another Jim's UA-cam video so he had an idea but if it was out in the field no one has ever had to pick one before than probably would of taken much much longer

There are some options available, but I think maybe a bigger redesign might be the best route. This lock is already pretty complicated, and something like a reverse sidebar, for example on the Yuema 750, is both more simple and more pick resistant.

Thanks! It was a really unique and interesting design, and it took some abnormal technique to get into it.

Yeah, that was definitely the first challenge 🤣

Thanks! It would have been much harder without the wisdom gained by your first pick.

For sure, it’s not like anything I’ve seen before.
