i was trying to trick your feeling when picking by changing up the pins and the spring. notice the only non serrated key pin has the larger spring. I made a few of the pins. I thought about making a spooled key pin but was unsure if it would cause the key not be non functional.

It did give a different feeling from your basic american lock. Great work on building this challenge lock! And amazing work on those pins!

You make it look easy. The spring in 5 come out of one of those clear plastic practice locks?

@Locksquash I'm not sure where he got that long spring from.
