 Hey YouTube, this is Alex again. I just thought I'd show you a cool feature of this southward ace lockpick. So it comes with a right-handed decoder gauge and I just thought I'd quickly demonstrate how that works. So it has readings from 1 to 8 and 8 is I guess a flush cut So this pin here, I can rotate it very carefully without coming out of focus You can see that this pin here is that Let me zoom in a little bit more. Well, that's all we get That's that flush The next pin over let's see what that is at. So what we do is we register the notch the top of the notch on This is one of these little ridges between the feelers and we want to see find the one where when we're when they When the valley is on the knot is on the this ridge that the little tip of this thing just touches the feeler and it may not be precise, but you just find the one that's the best So we'll try just to make it obvious I'll you I'll reference off of this ridge so clearly Can't hardly get it to work, but clearly that's not it. It's not a six. Let's go over try maybe Three Now that's I call that pretty close Let's try two and that that looks pretty good. So I'd call that two Just do one more for you just to Have another example. Okay, there's one a little deeper. There's a there's a bunch deeper cut Yeah, so we'll try that one there. I'm sure that's nicely centered Exposure up just a little Brighter, okay, it should be nicely in focus So again Start a start in the middle. Maybe there's a five and I'm lining it up That was a pretty good guess. I'm gonna call that a little deep. So how about a four? now I'm on the on the pin and I can see that the gauge is just a little bit high So this may be a three That's actually perfectly a three occasionally you'll get the marts kind of Uncl... there neither of them is perfect, right? Because there's always a little bit of tolerance I would just pick the one that's closest. I believe once you have the code for the lock and I'm not sure how it's typically written but you should be able to go to a Locksmith and have them cut it by code or you can get a little machine a couple different kinds of machines that will Cut it for you So I'd say this little tool is is worth the it's worth the investment if you play with these locks a lot and It's kind of neat to be able to decode them. So anyway Little tip. This is Alex Thanks for watching. Have fun and keep it legal. Cheers
