i have the skill but not the tool to do it, I had
thought about using my regular
lockpicks and make a custom tension wrench... not really -that- much harder than
a 6 pin regular lock.
no numbers on the face of the lock, one of the housemates is a locksmith and
could cut me a key with the code.he is out of town doing some training this week
and I was hoping to get in and take a look inside.... may have to wait anyways,
he might have a tubular pick in his truck.
I will revise my earlier suggestions and suggest you use 'patience' ;-)
Since you know somebody who either can pick the lock without damage, or
who probably knows another locksith who can do it, I'd wait. No point in
risking permanent damage to the case just to get inside a few days sooner.
Incidentally, as I am sure you know, if you pick an Ace lock with the
tubular lockpick, you end up with the sliders on the pick positioned so
as to pack the pick into the key for the lock. You can then measure hteir
positions to work out how to cut the key.
