Watching your videos makes me realise how heavy handed I am lol!The 1100 demo was the smoothest open ever very delicate picking.Something for me to work on.Thanks mate I re-watched this as Iv just had this set delivered today🥳👍🏻
@@Dotslocks14 sweet, it's a nice set for sure. Training locks with cutouts can help to improve finesse as does marking your pick with a marker to help you learn pin spacing and really get a feel for what pin you're on and feel individual pin states. Lots of practice too! 😁👍🏻
@ Cheers mate.I will try the marker on the pick technique I have seen a few people use that in other videos.Anything to improve.Cheers mate Merry Christmas to you and yours🎅🏻🎄👍🏻
Ive been thinking of getting the Echelon set myself - CI are good quality, as far as I know, which is good (the sparrows set I have, while its not broken, is a little weak for me I think). The tan case is nice, yes it will probably get dirty but it will get dirty in a unique way, so it kind of personalises it in a way, gives it its own patina. Cool review as always man, I might check this set out if I can afford it! Cheers. :)
@@alextop1850 I've done a review on a lawlock tools set which is UK based 😎👍🏻. I mainly do reviews what companies send me, so it kind of depends on what I'm sent.
That card should be able to be written to with any NFC enabled phone :) I use them for a business card that auto-launches my linktree when people tap their phone to it! You dont need a flipper zero for it ~
@@DmaclocksportRobert Pingor has said that he is working on it! The reason it's taking so long is because he wants to try and create a brand new entity for international distribution rather than rely on existing ones.

They are nice looking sets. That was a nice win 👌👍
What a great review!! Means a lot coming from you! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and congratulations on winning this!!!
@@LockFumbler thanks LF, it was super lucky. It also changed my opinion on CI products 😎👍🏻
@@Dmaclocksport awesome 👌 I am still abiy skeptical, but since I only hear good things I am tending towards liking them 🤔 your review means a lot.
I just got my set the other day, I need to go pick up a starter lock so I can give it a try.
I just ordered the Echelon and Genesis set along with the commercial door hook for an extra 10 bucks, I can't wait 😩
Lucky win of the random generator…looks like a great set.
@@mcdpoor sure was. My name got picked the first time Rob Pingor came on Picking Time. It was a great result 👍🏻
@@Dmaclocksport lucky, that was a great live, but was very long.
Nice pick set mate and great review thanks for the video

@@Feenix102 I'd say it's a step up in quality from much of Sparrows stuff in my experience 👍🏻
Could you do a vid on all the best uk 🇬🇧 tools for house and car locks then maybe a 🌎 version

@@Dmaclocksport I.mean like the best of the best 🇬🇧 tools needed for europ locks 🔒 if you could only have one kit built out to what you think is best
I had to buy it but it's great!
Nice gear, I think I heard CI are looking into shipping/distributors outside of US in the future
@@gprider1525 that's good to hear 👍🏻

@@xluckydog thanks for the info 😎👍🏻
@@Dmaclocksport Happy to help!! The app I use for it is NFC tools :D
From what the lock picking lawyer said about this set it's supposed to be an addon to another set. The Genesis set I think 🤔
@@koreywilliams4570 yep, the genesis set 👍🏻
The biggest downside is the very limited number of countries to which the product can be shipped : (
@@Kosogoat I agree. It'd be nice to have dedicated distrubutors around the world
@@Dmaclocksport one can hope for it to happen.
@@Dmaclocksportdo Covert ship to the UK (England) ?
@@gavtommo2964 yes, they do. As far as I know, keep your order below £130 to avoid import tax
