YOU ARE A GOD!!! No videos have had as much detail as yours. I finally got my Master lock open that has 2 security pins. Thanks to this video. And those are really nice homemade picks.

How do you do that everytime I try to push the pins up they come back down

[Pudersepp]

@icydragon542

Are you applying any torque to the cylinder?

[icydragon542]

yes

[Pudersepp]

@icydragon542

Then - if you think you are applying the torque correctly - the problem might be that you pick the pins in a wrong order. Try to set the pins in order of setting density, as in - try to pick the pin that shows most resistance to pushing it up the shearline. Sometimes if you pick in a wrong order, it seems that none of the pins actually set. Another thing I have come across is, that old (dirty) locks need a lot of torque before the pins start setting. It can be frustrating.

@Pudersepp I think what he is trying to say is that he is applying torque but the bottom pin is falling but the top pin is setting and he thinks its not setting

[Pudersepp]

@rskid23

Okay!
