So happy I found your page. I read a review on Reddit where someone was told to buy some Mortise cylinders and repinning kits. Can a Mortise cylinder be repinned or only re keyed. In the discussion they were trying to talk a new picker away from buying practice locks. follow up question what do I need to purchase if I go with a few mortise locks instead of practice locks, and what should I buy

Where can I get new pins for my medeco deadbolts? I want to repin mine.

That’s your video? A picture with people talking? Get bent

😢😢😢😢😢

As one who worked in hvac many years a steam pipe is highly unlikely to start a fire, reason being a steam pipe can not get that hot, ive seen many many steam pipes ran right thru timbers operate for years, steam is 212 degrees even under 15 pounds of pressure which is much higher than a boiler would generate then is only 250 degrees.

A bit of information on lumber 2 by 4s and most other wood sold for framing is as a rule, pine, most doors that are solid wood are oak or pine.

Enjoyed this, A little info on heat pumps, Heat pumps were not on the market until the 1940s and were not popular until the 1960s, the reason they are not widely used up north is simply, they do not effectively work below 40 degrees, anything below 40 and the heat pump is ineffective and switches over to auxillary heat, In Ohio and about all other cold climates gas is widely used, many homes and buildings still use hot water or steam heat. up until the 70s oil heat was widely used, In North Carolina where im from oil heat was used almost exclusively up into the 70s.mostly hot air but there was and still is some radiator heat in larger more expensive homes.

I can't imagine children running out of a 1st floor room into the crowded hallway when all they had to do was climb out a huge window.

Hello. I read that the theater is haunted. Does anyone agree with the stories?

Never heard of this tragedy, it was my watching the fire at the Lady’s Angel school fire in Chicago that spoke on this tragedy that I was led here.

Very informative video. Thank You. I'm a bldg maint engineer and use Schlage format. We just bought a bldg that uses Best and I have no clue what i'm doing. This video was very helpful. I found most of the pinning tools you mentioned in a drawer but need the right pins and caps to get started. Thanks again.

I watched the video shot by the newsman that you mentioned. I clocked the speed in which the fire engulfs the entire building. It took all of 62 seconds for the fire to be an inferno. One thing that stunned me was the fire's refusal to be put out. The building was roughly 4K square feet. I noticed several ladders dousing the roof and sides and the fire was basically laughing at the water. In 1975 I lost my entire group of classmates in a bus accident that resulted in a fire. I was supposed to be on that bus trip. However, a nasty case of influenza kept me confined to my dorm room. The Station club incident kept me awake for days with terrible nightmares. It's impossible to imagine what those poor people suffered through.

*Breck's shop?*

When in Chicago, I always go to the alley behind the theater where many fell to their deaths., Death Alley...but it does have a real name, but I forget right now what it is called.

WHY!!!!! WHY!!!!! Pyros weren't meant to be used inside for concerts

I was born late in my parents life. My mom attended her school in Washington Iowa. When we visited her home town she took me by the school she attended !2920 the 1917. Looking at that abandoned building my only thought was it was nothing but a fire trap. Gave me nightmares.

Thank you. Knew of the New London fire and was alive and was listening to WGN radio when Chicago Angels fire . .

What would be the remainder of the pins in the 1st and 3rd chamber of the pinning process? The one with the select keying of 1D, 1F, 2A. I see the alpha pin in the first chamber is 3a, then 6b? Also with the 3rd chamber, alpha pin is 1a followed by , 2b, then 4b? Thanks!

Thanks just got my broken key out that was deep inside the lock. The tip with the pliers for better leverage definitely helped. Thank you

Who sends people to an alternate exit in a fire? What the hell was he thinking?!!!!

Great White never got to that part of the song. Thats how fast the fire started. The couple in the tattoo shop with Scott were Mike and Sandy Hoogasian, who sadly perished in the fire.

Excellent 🎉

That looks pretty rad. Now if I could stack, say... 2 of them in a custom packout case with handle and carry 100 cores into a building like a gentleman that would be next level! 💼

I've got somewhere between 500-1000 cores, all tossed in cardboard boxes according to their master & submaster. That would be pretty cool to have, and loads easier to organize properly.

Thanks for showing this, that Medeco ejector sounds great. Hoping someone makes the A1 block again someday. I’ve tried using the 6-at-once and 7-at-once capping tools (like the Framon CBCAP7) but always seem to get uneven/poor results so I went back to one chamber at a time. Is there a trick to using them? Maybe a bigger hammer surface that spreads the impact force more evenly? Or maybe it’s just lack of practice/experience? 🤷‍♂

Never say never 😂 Looking forward to hearing how you’re gonna build a better pin-sorting mousetrap 😊

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing it on their site. Thanks for working with them on this and showing us all about it 😊🙏👏

Thank you so much for this video. I started out pinning Best SFIC, and when the day came I had to pin up a Corbin style LFIC (Emhart high security, to be completely honest), the minus and plus pins really confused me, because I didn't know the "math" scale that it was based on. This is such a great help.

nice rack, for locks. have a great day

Take my money

That is awesome!!! 😎 🐾🐈‍⬛👍

To think most breakins were from the door being kicked in. Those are some crazy laws protecting squatters and not home owners. Thanks for this podcast, cheers

The facts that crime goes up in summer is certainly something to be aware of that I had never considered before. This is going to become more of an issue as summers get hotter across the globe and people become more complacent as they try and cool their homes. Thanks for this story, cheers

i have seen so many documentary's and a movie on this story. It was good hearing your research. Thanks for this story, cheers ( yes I am binging on your content, finally got some time to catch up on it, so no need to reply to all my comments)

Really enjoy the story's you are covering. Thanks for this video, cheers

Ii enjoy the history of these crimes. The story is familiar to me, good to hear the history now as an adult. Thanks for this story, cheers

Thanks for this story guys, cheers

To be sorted one day? Those would either be sorted into clean or dirty scrap brass if I was doing it.

My desk is covered in pins, and I just bought 13 sizes of 100 pins at $3 (CDN) per hundred. I thought of trying to sort them, but really don't have the time.

Are these like the schlages IC cores? Where if you don't have a control key you can cut one based on the existing key?

Jumble the tumblers!!

fire inspector should have been charged too...

New sub. This is such a well done thoughtful podcast. We had active threat training at my courthouse position and it's hard to imagine how anyone would react in this type of situation 😢😢😢

The framing of a lot of homes today is still done with fur a type of pine! Why would you say that we don’t frame with pine anymore? We don’t build schools with pine so much anymore but it is still used.🧐

You sure do a nice job explaining thank you😊

You’re videos skills are awful

Slavers handcuffs and police handcuffs.. good history

😂😂 Hilarious!! Thanks for sharing your behind the scenes. I l0vE iT!! ❤

I think Jeffs reaction was the best! 😂

I love it, that was priceless. So glad you got that on video. Thanks for sharing it! 😊👏
