I recently got hold of a vintage brass pancake lock similar to the one I made last year. Unfortunately it didn't have a key although it did give me an opportunity and a challenge to open the lock and make a new key.
It was my mate Luke who found the lock, you may remember him from past videos. Luke makes awesome stuff and you can check out his work here / make_smith

This was a cool little project that I really enjoyed and something a bit different. You can check out my mate Luke's awesome work here instagram.com/make_smith/
This was definitely interesting enough to share thanks!
Hey, it's LockPickingLawyer, Aussie edition! In all seriousness, I really enjoy these non-standard projects!
I'm not sure about that but glad you enjoyed it! The video was an enjoyable change for me too - something a bit different!. :)
Lock picking larakin
Even tho @bosnianbill is no longer active on YT, I think Pask is more in line with Bill. Great video tho! Really enjoyed it.
"This is the lockpicking Queenslander and what I have for you today…"
""I'll open that again just to prove it wasn't a fluke."
Lovely work, Neil. Here's another word for your vocabulary, what you were doing with the nails to start with is called 'impressioning' the lock.
".......and I thought it was interesting enough to share............" Watching you watching paint dry would be interesting enough to share on this channel. You never fail to amaze and amuse, and i look forward to each video, though in practice I have, nor do I believe that I will ever have, occasion to create or perform anything you accomplish on this channel - I suppose I just like absorbing knowledge that is not directly relevant to my life - or I just enjoy your knowledge and talents and the resulting videos!
I was never really as interested in metal working as I was with woodworking, but your videos have got me super interested, and I love the added variety you now bring to the channel.
That's awesome glad it's got you interested! I reckon making is making whatever you use and it's more fun to explore different techniques. :)
@@PaskMakes exactly, what put me off was not having the tools or techniques, but really I had enough tools to still do a bit, and the technique of trial and error is as good as any when it's only a hobby for me.
Great attention to detail.
Thanks very much June! :)
You said this video is different than the normal, but I don’t see how. You wanted to make something cool, then you did and we all loved it. Pretty normal to me. Cheers!
Very cool Neil. Another educational video for me. I worked for the railroad for 25 years and I’ve seen a lot of padlocks. First time I’ve ever seen a push luck let alone a push lock that did not have a key with it.
Thanks Dan! From what I've read these locks were used on railroads and this one is from New Zealand. :)
It's amazing how close your homemade lock resembles this one. Great work on making the key for this one, what a fun and interesting little project! You have a great channel and all your videos are informative, entertaining, and relaxing. Cheers!
Thanks very much Alex! I'm super pleased with my lock, probably one of the pieces I'm most proud of. :)
Old locks are awesome!
That padlock is really nice, and I love how you showed how to make the key to the right bidding for the lock. 😊👍👍👍👍👍
I've been using Boeshield T9 for 10 yrs after a friend gave me a can to compare to WD40; haven't gone back since.
I use in all my exterior door locks, padlocks, and as a lubricant-it's amazing. Great video Neil.
I agree Dan - it really is awesome stuff. :)
LockPickingLawyer may approve this !
A contour gauge...to pick a pick. Amazing!
Congrats on over a million subs. You deserve it.
Have you ever watched lock picking lawyer?
The great return of the hacksaw !! 😁
Always a pleasure to watch your videos
Thanks Thomas - I reckon I still use a hacksaw pretty much most days. :)
That was fun, interesting, and informative. It may not be your 'usual' fare but it's still a fabulous video where we see you puzzle out a solution and fabricate it. Thanks Neil. Loved this.
It was a fun one to make too Vickie - glad you enjoyed it! :)
Definitely worth publishing this video!
That is so clever using the nails as a template!!!!
Great job once again. Sometimes these small maintenance/housekeeping tasks are more fun to watch than the big projects. Thank you. :)
Glad you enjoyed it Bobby! :)
Thank you for showing a new type of lock never seen before, "Except for the one you made" New to me at least.
Few things as lovely as good, old locks and keys.
That couldn't have gone better - nice lock !
Great work mate! I love the one you made and it is fantastic to see how close it looks to an original!
Thanks very much mate! :)
Wonderful! I still think that brass lock you did is your best build to date, I just love rewatching those vids, this makes a great companion to the original videos.
Thanks very much and glad you still enjoy the original build! It really was one of my favourite projects too and can't believe it actually worked. :)
Very cool! I like little oddball projects here and there. Especially one that solves a problem like this!
Thanks Ben - it was a bit different but I enjoyed making it too. :)
I'm a fan of these new videos and various projects. It's interesting to see how other people go about fixing/restoring and improving things around their home and workshop. It's given me the motivation to work on some projects for myself instead of focussing all my creative energy on others ideas. Putting aside some mental energy to visualise my own goals.
Glad the videos are helpful! :)
How cool. I had one of these locks when I was a kid, found it in our scrapyard. Never thought of trying to make a key.
My brothers and I used to carry a LOT of cool stuff away, eventually our dad started charging us per Kg. :)
Nice, Neil. I'm glad you decided to share this with us.
Bill
Thanks very much - greatly enjoy and appreciate all your postings - very inspiring and educational. - Ray Southern CA
Nice little project Neil. 👍🏽👌👏
Thank you for this, I have 5 of these that need keys and I am going to did them out storage and get to work.
not sure why, but I am fascinated with old locks like that, especially skeleton keys. groovy video!
I'm with you - they're just cool! :)
Nice quick little project, thanks!
I have this exact lock, it was in my grandfathers possession. I've had it for many years and it works. Cool to see this.
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
A little gem of a video. 👍
I had one of these locks sitting around and planned on making a key the way you made yours. I found an uncut key blank online, so I figured I'd save some work and just buy the blank. When It arrived I popped it into the lock to make sure it fit. Lock popped open, no cutting necessary. 🤯 Needless to say I wouldn't trust it to keep any valuables safe.
Impressioning is a good attack for locks with exposed bitting like this (see tubular locks and they are picked and decoded with just one tool as well)
I received one of these without a key as a gift last year and making a key for it was a fun little project.
Awesome job!!! I didn’t know this trick!
❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Man! That was super cool!!! I love locks, especially older ones like that. I have a goal to make a nice brass lock one day.
I agree Chaser - you should have a go at making one, it was an awesome challenge. :)
Neil, everything you do is interesting enough to share! Thanks for this cool into these locks!
Thanks very much Delia! :)
I can watch you do just about anything in the shop lol
As always, enjoy your videos. Very cool seeing the process in making a key for this lock. Kudos!
Thanks very much Justin - glad you enjoyed it! :)
Skilled maker and now lockpicker too! Is there no end to your talents?
Always a pleasure to watch you work.
Glad you enjoyed it Alan although I'm definitely not a lock picker. :)
Great work! At first I was worried you were going to disassemble the lock to measure for a key. I should have know better ;P Very nice !
Neat trick that might come in handy should i ever get a lock like this :)
Yes, definitely interesting and of value. Thanks for sharing. We're with you, mate!
its really awesome to see what an original one looks like and how one can go about opening it. Thank you for the short and sweet video i can say it was really enjoyable
Thanks very much Charlie - glad you enjoyed it! :)
This is very much a video that fits you., always great to watch such a great creator
Great project thanks for sharing.
You never cease to amaze me with your skills
Thanks very much Jonathan! :)
It's not the _Scrapwood Challenge_ I was hoping for but I will take lol. 👍👍
Great, as always. I love those short little project for the quick sense of accomplishment they give you. Don't know if I could make a lock, but I've made a few skeleton keys for locks I've found. I'll be sure to remember that pin nail trick for future reference!
Thanks Vaughn - it was a project I just wanted to get at and I thought it was worth filming. :)
Awesome!
Thank you for sharing.
Best site period
It may be different than your typical video, but I enjoyed it.
Awesome video. Super interesting. Need to get me one of those ratcheting tap wrench. Mahalo for sharing! : )
What a fun video! Thank you.
Fantastic work, Neil! Really interesting process indeed! 😃
Thanks a bunch for sharing! There's always tips we can get from those videos!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks very much! :)
Yet another brilliant, informative, video.
good of you to use a coaster for the coffee!
I'm glad you shared. And very well done my friend!
Awesome as always Neil
When you need to copy/transfer something, use a printer with a scanner bed. Make a copy 1:1. I used it for computer motherboards to transfer mounting holes for standoffs. It saves tedious measurements and is much more accurate. Spray some contact cement on it to mount it.
Nice one! I did almost the exact same thing except I used a couple of popsicle sticks and elastics to hold the brads.
I was surprised how easy it was! :)
Top job Neil.
Those look exactly like my great grandfathers US army footlocker lock that I still have, only mine has a warded key not a push key
As always, I really enjoyed this one.
Really glad you shared this, always great to watch you work👍
Thanks very much! :)
3:28, Hey honey do you want some metal shavings with your coffee? Pask: No babe I have some at the shop. :)
Thank you so much for another excellent video. Always a pleasure to watch your videos, over and over again :)
I dig through a lot of antique flea markets on a fairly regular basis, yet in the past 20 years I've never seen this type of padlock here in my neck of the woods (Central Europe).
Really liked this video.. wish I could give it more than one thumbs up!
Enjoyed Watching. Thanks for sharing
Nice work Neil! 👍👍🔐🔐
Now I want one of those Padlocks...
Smart work, if there is such a thing!
That's a cool lock. I want to make some locks in the future, this looks like it might be a good start.
Thanks very much! I have to say, I think there would be easier locks but if I managed I'm sure you can too. I definitely want to make more locks. :)
That’s really cool.
Love your work 👍
I have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.
That was pretty cool!
pretty cool stuff.
Clever work!
👍 another cool lock 🔐
Yet another interesting video thanks
Quite interesting, thanks!
Fascinating!
Thanks! Pask 🔒🔑
Neil, do you find 'weekday' posting more relaxing?
Stay well!!!
Good one. Thanks. Stay Blessed
4:25 just signed up for the waitlist.
The cup with.. tea or something is nothing without "perfect" on it)
Neat project!
It's funny that "6 Levers" is embossed right onto the lock, since that's useful information when you're trying to pick the lock. I guess it's not supposed to be a high-security lock, but the manufacturer going out of their way to help out lock-pickers seems a bit odd. 😀
This was fun!
Always wondered what those odd keys were for...
Great video!!
Ingenious !
so good!
Very nice!
