To add my 2 cents. Shear line is the part that spins. Turn it to a picked position and then spin and it spins, turn it back and if it spins to the pins it locks shut. There's my idea
A simple solution would be to cut the cores from the front, so as to leave the back intact. IF so, then a simple lobe plate can be added. Once all 3 lobes are rotated by picking, it will spin. It would look like that Japanese symbol with the 3 commas.
@@kebien6020 except for the one L.O.T.O. lock they made. As LPL put it, amazing core in their worst body... As opposed to the their locks that are intended for actually locking things, where it's their worst cores in an otherwise decent body. ...as LPL himself put it.
looks like he not only did a great job of creating a challenge lock but he also balanced it for the spinner part. Nice pick. i enjoy your video, thanks.
sneaky bastard! i was thinking about doing that with a challenge lock! undercutting and profiling the core and the bible enough that a pin will FEEL picked but will lay sideways and basically give a VERY deep false set
That happens alot. So many times i have a challenge lock idea, only to see someone else do it. To be fair though i didn't come up with the slots in the core idea (cant remember where i saw it though)
Fr tho, I just rekeyed the lock to my bedroom door (literally today) to match my house key. If I shove the key all the way in, it’ll turn one way but not the other. To get it to turn the other way, I have to pull the key out just ever-so slightly, not even enough to know I’ve made a difference internally (to the pins)
Hmm. He may well be the *only* TH-camr I currently watch where a longer video is actually a good sign - in all the others it just means the person babbles/wastes time more - here, it *actually* means there's more content.
Does anyone else find it concerning that the best locks seem to be homemade in someones shed? Every commercial lock seems to have a major flaw, or the inability to last more than a few minutes.
Well, mass production with common or simple parts = less production cost = more $ on sales. Add to that tricky labeling -unpickable, max security, ect. and most ppl take the bait. LPL enjoys exposing these facades.
the biggest flaw is the fact that the better they are and the more of them there are: the larger amount of tools for them exist... their goal is to produce and sell cheap, not to make every one unique and special
I am guessing there are reliability issues and ability to mass produce those things. It's no big deal if a challenge lock is indeed a bit hard to open. Way less desirable for your front door I've though
You know the silver lock wasn't easy, I've never heard LPL breathe before whilst trying to pick a lock. You know it must be tricky if even LPL is 'grunting'. :)
@@Arcticroberto9376 are they? I'm 99percent sure that inertia is mass dependent but momentum is mass and velocity.

These pick and gut videos just make me think if he was gonna break onto my house, he would remove the lock and tell me to get a better one just cause he got bored one day
I had unavoidable respect for Daniel from the start cos surely there can't be many Daniels here so I think I know the guy from his recent drop-bear trap design Daniel drew on back of a Maccas receipt...so it MUST be Daniel! 😉 And I can only imagine how long just the engineering took plus building it while existing for a month with no friends daring to visit till...well probably till about five minutess after you expressed how impressed you were - while setting poor guy up with your next challenge lock - you will exist happily not knowing for months still! 😉 In all truth, way more respect to both involved here in my knowledge of superior talents buried any modesty I keep gagging on! Lovely gentlemen. See y'all next time!
It's so amazing how far creativity has come on building challenge locks :D. I really thought the cool tripple locks from T&J and Daniel were the top, but they seem to be only the top of the iceberg ;). Absolutely cool and excellent craftmanship :). Thanks a lot for sharing :).
LPL: You didn't click on this to see me playing. Well, actually, that's exactly why I allways watch his videos: watching him playing with locks and crack or hack them within a short time.
If there is one thing that this channel has taught me, no matter how good a key-lock’s mechanism is, it’s only pick resistant if it’s keyhole requires custom tools.
When I was in elementary school I easily picked one of those 3 digit bicycle locks by just feeling for the clicks when I rotated the numbers. Somehow it took me until adulthood to get into watching videos about regular locks. I never really wanted to get into trouble. I just like imagining how things work and finding out if I'm right.
I dont think the dual pins fitting unto each other or the homemade pins made much of a difference in the picking process. It was the undercuts and the variety of styles of pins used that did
Don't know if anybody noticed but the TH-cam buffering wheel is in the shape of a fidget spinner as well! Awesome challenge lock and very nice picking.
When i saw this. I was thinking if they had come up with a mechanism that would connect pins in the different locks to each other, making it that certain pins or sets of pins would lock in place other pins till they were picked.
If I was a locksmith, I'd build a challenge lock like the Bowley lock, but it would have 8 pins with 3 false sets at each end, plus they'd be angled like a Medeco lock. The two middle "pins" would be magnetic, rather than mechanical. This just might be only only guy in the world who could still pick it, but I bet it would take even him a long time!
I think i speak for everyone here - we all would like to acquire one lock-spinner :P Awesome gift you haver received, and Daniel an outstanding craftsmanship mate, love it! Make your boy happy and give it to him :) p.s. do consider making closing credits with the spinner :D
Gedday from Australia and good for you Daniel because if you are able to impress your work and possibly hobby to some of these guys well while I personally couldn't do it ,its nice to know that some of you guys are sharing your ideas Cheerz.
Imagine a six-pin core with these types of undercutting, serrating and spooling in a commercial lock with a robust body. Might it jam up on it's own with time and be impractical? I really like your videos, BTW and I am waiting for my first lock pick set from China (based on your recommendations).
Yes and it freaked me out when I tried stepping back to get another look. I tried another LockPickingLawyer video and it didn't happen but then I tried a random video that had "fidget" in the title and it did. TH-cam programmers having fun.

It would be cool to make a fidget spinner that has to be unlocked before it will spin... Absolutely no idea how it would be done.
Dave T I thought that might be the kicker on this one for a while, would be cool:)
Could be done a locking pin wound have to lmpinge through the outer race of the bearing and jam the elements or the inner.
Put a lock in one lobe with a pin that holds it still with a pin

@@BayMacDre415 I think he more likely just made the silver more difficult thinking you'd think the gold would be most difficult.
Security by misdirection.
I still don't even know if "binding" is a good or bad thing 😂
Mostly good. When it binds you can feel resistance and nine times out of ten you’re close to setting the pin.
rond binding means it’s moving towards being set?
Binding means the prior pins are likely set and the current pin is the one resisting the turn.
I watched like 200 LPL videos and I have never thought of this before

Golly most of the time I haven’t a clue what he is say but I do enjoy watching it
of course it spins longer, it has bigger momentum with those locks on its ends. All it needs is a good bearing.
He put all his points into lockpicking and speech, he didn't have any skill points left for science
Inertia not momentum.. I'm fairly sure. Momentum is movement inertia is movement with weight
@@eyeball7465 inertia and momentum are the same

Can we take a moment to appreciate the catching of one lock while in midspin? A perfect catch at that.

Master lock is run by their market department. Not the engineering department. So they could care less.
