    I'm glad I came across this video before wasting time with bolt cutters. Lost my keys when my truck was stolen and the company said they don't remove locks. I'll have to buy another grinder (also in truck), but it'll make the job much easier.

    Lost key to shed lock (Carbonite master storage lock) . This worked perfect. Little $30 grinder from Harbor freight and I cut right where you said to cut. It went right through in 30 seconds with no issues. $40 total and saved a bunch of hassle. Thank you!

      @@juliavassar2047 use vice grips to hold the lock. Use a good 3/8 drill bit in a drill. Drill directly into the top of the key slot. You'll hit a certain spot inside the lock and all the little pins fall out. Pull on lock, it's now open.

    Just use a drill with a 3/8 bit, and drill the keyway. Way safer and possibly 10-15 seconds quicker when you get started.
