Nice to see you put one of these in context. Most videos just pick them with no really explanation of what or how they lock
LOL at the pin trying to run for the border. I was surprised at how quickly it opened until I saw the pins.
I never knew those locks worked like that! Thanks for teaching!
That lock was so upset with you the pin tried to make a run for it. Great pick and gut!
Like you demonstrated. Akward angle, after some time even dirt and rust. It makes a hard, but not imposible pick.
Loved the flying springs!
I’ve seen these lock bodies before but never the housing they are designed to fit -very cool.
I'm always amazed how people can rake stuff with that many pins. I struggle with getting a 4 pin lock to rake open...
That's a really good looking lock, nicely demonstrated how to rake these open. I'm a bit surprised that it didn't have any spools or serrated pins considering what it is designed to lock up and protect against theft. Thanks for this video, have a fun picking weekend, cheers
I'm fascinated by your twin pick there. Shrink wrapping two picks together? You might want to talk about how that works for you and how you can up with the idea.
Probably a time saving hack when competing in locksport speed-pick contests. There are some pick makers who do make some double ended stainless steel picks. Personally I like them all only on one end, so I can see the full set with one glance and grab the next one I need streight away. Locknoob has been busy designing hybrid pick profiles recently. Those designs seem a neater idea to me. More variety of tools should mean more success maybe? Or more practice with a smaller amount of tools? It's hard to know what's best.
Didn't Paclock used to be or part of Federal. Nice job and great video. Take care and be well. 🔓👍🙂
Nice pick and gut. Im very surprised there are no security pins in there. If that were mine there definitely would be if I was going to put it to use. lol Cheers!
I appreciate you picking it as if it were on a van. Probably would've been easier if it was held firmly in place for you instead of sliding around. Nice job!
Really surprised that Federal 400 didn't have any security pins. I have a black Federal Puck lock somewhere in my collection and it feels like it's got plenty security pins.
Very disappointed at Federal. Despite the lock being encased you did really well raking it open.
Thanks for showing how those locks worked!
Great video! Leaving the tensioner like that seems like the big challenge
Excellent breakdown and explanation from beginning to end.
You made it look easy. Lol
I'd really like to see someone try that with a disk detainer lock
That's a very good point. The new Sparrows pick wouldn't do it. Possibly the Silver Bullet but it would be really difficult.
In that case, you could just remove one of the handles. But it would be awkward. It's possible the reason it hasn't been done is the restriction would make it just as awkward to get the actual key in, as I've found that just using padlocks with DD cores in is fiddly, because the disks sometimes move, so you have to twist the key back and forth to get it in the lock. On a van lock, the vibration of the road would guarantee those disks moving round. So to have a DD core in a van lock, it would need to have a centering spring and indents on the disks to keep them in the locked, key exit/entry position.
Wow, nice take job. I have a Federal 100 that's a tough pick. Haven't been able to rake it.
I've never had a puck lock to work on but they do look like a bit of a challenge.
Great use of the bump hammer
Nice pick, I like how you picked as if in use. Def changes things
Thanks for the video, love the "Van" desk!
Lol I have pins do that all the time. They want to. Little brass kamikaze pilots. I know you have skills, but it looked really easy to open for all the metal thats there. With a rake yet.
Learning more daily. Thanks for a good video
cool real life picking, sort of ,except it not being attached to an truck! so different from being in a vice or in hand
Nice demo!
Made it look easy
Nice racking job. That didn't take too long at all.
I'm very surprised to see no security pins in there. Even the cheaper range normally have mushroom pins in them. So, either it isn't a federal core, or federal is using third party junk now. I hope it's not the latter.
Learning a lot from these videos!
Great video!
The position doesn't help but you are a monster at it :D
Tight quarters... nice video
Some day I'll get to that level. Great video.
You made that look so easy.
i would love to know your thought process has to how you are choosing the specific rake used on any one lock. I'm new to the hobby and need to learn. Thanks.
Whichever rake matches the shape of the key bitting the closest. There's also three main ways of using a rake pick; gently to nudge the pins up until they hit the sheer line, abrasively to have the same effect as bumping, and up and down/rocking to try to match the key bitting as close as possible to jiggle it open. Knowing the bitting of the key helps. If you don't have the key, then it's a matter of trying each rake and technique to see which combination that particular lock responds to the best. If it's a cheap ass bike lock, I usually start with the higher peak city rake if it fits, and the lower peak city rake if that one didn't. If that doesn't work, I try my sparrows 23thou triple peak bogata. That seems to work the most successful for me. If still no joy, I then feel around with a short hook, then medium hook and spp the thing. My current success rate is relative to how much practice I put in. Which isn't enough these days cos I'm spending too much time designing things with Lego (my other stress relief hobby)
Picked up one of these cores for practice. Do not test it by turning the key all the way round!.. Just saying.
Ive just recently found you and I must say.
Good content
thanks for sharing it! looks more intimidating than it is i guess
cool lock nicely done
Nice lock and pick!
Great vid and very nicely done!

Keep looking at these on eBay and not made the plunge yet
Cool stuff!, nice video!
Leaving a comment as entry for the januari giveaway :D
Thank you
Good video
Interesting.
I don’t think I will be using this lock for my van
Mad Bob ftw
Does the Federal 400 puck lock come security pin from the factor?
Dissapointing, all std pins.
Nice video
