- Ok, so ya say ya wanna learn how to pick combination locks...This text
- file should help you. As a matter of fact, if ya do it right, it will help
- you. First of all, let me tell you about the set-up of a lock. When the lock
- is locked, there is a curved piece of metal wedged inside the little notch
- on the horseshoe shaped bar that is pushed in to the lock when you lock it.
- To free this wedge, you must(must is a word used to much) you usually(that
- sounds much better) have to turn the lock to the desired combination and the
- pressure on the wedge is released therefore letting the lock open. I will now
- tell you how to make a pick so you can open a lock without having to waste
- all that time turning the combination (this also helps when ya don't know the
- combination to begin with). First of all, ya need to find a hairpin. What's a
- hairpin? Well, just ask your mom. She will have one. If she asks what its
- for, say ya gotta hold something together... If she says use a rubberband or
- use a paperclip, tell her to fuck off and die and then go to the store and rip
- off a box of 50 or so. Ok, enough stalling (yea, i was stalling). Once you
- have your hair pin (make sure its metal), take the ridged side and break it off
- right before it starts to make a U-turn onto the straight side. The curved part
- can now be used as a handle. Now, using a file, file down the other end
- until it is fairly thin. You should do this to many hairpins and file them
- so they are of different thicknesses so you can pick various locks. Some locks
- are so cheap that ya don't even have ta file! But most are not. Ok, now you
- have a lock pick. Now if ya haven't figured it out, here's how ya use it.
- You look at a lock to see which side the lock opens from. If you can't tell,
- you will just have to try both sides. When ya find out what side it opens from,
- take the lock pick and stick the filed end into the inside of the horseshoe-
- shaped bar on whichever side the lock opens from. Now, put pressure on the
- handle of the lock pick (pushing down, into the crack) and pull the lock up and
- down. The lock will then open because the pick separated the wedge and the
- notch allowing us thieves to open it. Don't say bullshit until you've tried it.
-
- because i have gotten lots of beer money from doin' this to fellow students'
- gym lockers. Also, this technique works best on American locks. I have never
- picked a Master lock before because of the shape a pressure of the wedge but
- if anyone does it, let me know how long it took. Also, the Master lock casing
- is very tight so ya can't get the pick in. So, if you're locking something
- valuable up, use a Master, cuz at least ya know I won't be picking it and I'm
- sure there aren't that many that could. And when i say pick, i don't mean
- lighting a stick of dynamite next to the lock, picking is opening a lock without
- using force, making a substitute key, etc... If any of you believe that this
- information is not sufficient for picking an American lock, or any other kind
- besides Master, leave me a message at /\/\etallant 1 (503) 538-0761.
- This concludes my text file on picking combination locks. My next text
- file will probably be "Picking key locks". See ya later.
