How to Make Tension Wrenches for Lock Picking

  • I show how to make a standard bottom of the keyway tension wrenches out of windshield wiper inserts. It is very easy to do and only requires a few basic tools. The wiper inserts can be easily found from a pick-and-pull type scrap yard. The bending process is pretty straightforward but try not to make the bend curved and not too sharp or it may break. The ones I have made are comparable to the ones you would get from a lock pick kit. I modeled mine after the ones from the Sparrows Tuxedo pick kit. You can also make tension wrenches for specific locks that may be difficult to tension with more standard tension wrenches.

    I spent about 15 min rummaging around to see if i had anything worth using even before considering watching a video on how to make one. Luckily, my eyes caught sight of an old wiper blade in my scrap pile and I'm happy I'm on the short track along with your well-detailed tutorial that will mean the addition of a few new tools to my latest hobby, thanks for the video!

    A good source for making slimmer tension wrenches and, also, lock picks are the broken off "brushes" from street sweeping machines. You can see them on the street near the curbs. They are usually made from high carbon steel. Von thanks for an excellent video.

    I just made a fairly good tension wrench from a piece of bike radius that a hammered the tip flat. really works. when you reduce the size it really becomes stiff

    Great idea, I've bought a lock pick set on a budget and the tension tool just made out of mild steel. Thanks for sharing.

    This is a well made video. I just wanted to share that Peterson makes a great tool for this. Its on their web site and its a forming tool just for making tension wrenches. I have one and its awesome! Not to take away from your tutorial, its very well done! Just wanted to share. 😊

    It looks like the tensions wrenches spin around and say "Huh? What? Where?"

    I reheat my twist bend and quench so it’s not too soft at the twist. The first heating to twist it, anneals the metal

    I did not need my propane torch for heating. I used a flambéin lighter as used in the kitchen. Needed a good big one (10 Euros), however. A smaller one (4 Euros), useful for lighting sylvester crackers, did not get the iron hot enough.
    In my tiny hobby corner, a lighter is much more convenient than the big torch, and less dangerous.

    Dude, this iron is very sensitive, flexible and quickly breakable. Is there another iron or method that makes it more solid?

    • @fenderstratguy
      @fenderstratguy 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Heat wherever you plan to bend it.
      I used a Mapp gas torch....gets it red hot in seconds.

    • @DanielJohnson-ec8rk
      @DanielJohnson-ec8rk 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It’s not iron. It’s stainless steel

  • @JC-zh1xy

    Does heating them with the torch to make the 90° twist make them more brittle?

  • @drewb4653
    @drewb4653 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    dont forget heating up the steel fire red then dunkin it in water gives it much added strength as well

    • @wwhb4780
      @wwhb4780 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Never worked for me. Makes it brittle.

    • @NeverSuspects
      @NeverSuspects 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@wwhb4780 probably good for any bending to heat first with a torch. I got a old wire fish that the coil is broken in a bunch of places that is probably a better material for this kind of tool and shaping that without snapping it will require heating but it will be more spring like probably.. .

    • @autumn5592
      @autumn5592 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Doing that will harden the metal, provided it has a high carbon content.
      It WILL break when you use it. Do not do this.

    What's the other thing you use not the tension wrench

  • @Pabloisradical
    @Pabloisradical ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Heating the spring steel makes it not spring steel anymore you have to re quench it and temper the tension wrenches to proper strength.

    • @vonmalegowski
      @vonmalegowski  ปีที่แล้ว

      for the purpose of lockpicking this is adequate. Quenching and tempering is unnecessary.
