Safecracking for Everyone part 3 (Cracking the first number)

Next video will cover which number in the combination we found.

I don’t know what’s more amazing, that he understands this, that he can do it, or that he can explain it. The guy’s a genius and a natural teacher.

Mr. LM is THE first person to make the graph make sense!! Thank YOU!

[MyTubeUtoo]

These videos are addictive. This guy knows his stuff.

[MrLeo]

You giving out all the information back in my day at the buy books and study every night

13:50 And if you cannot find any obvious gate signature, you could always go for the lowest point regardless of any signatures. That point will have lowest shadowing by the wheel packs so if you park 2 wheels at that location and graph one wheel, you should get more accurate image for that one wheel because the other 2 have minimum possible shadowing. The closer the fence is the middle of the pack, the closer you're opening the lock.

I’ve got an old safe in the floor of my closet that the people we didn’t know the combination to so I just haven’t been able to use it since we moved in. I’m hoping to use this to get it open! Thanks for the great video!

[epigenetics]

Can the wheels shift somehow? We have an old rosengrens and know the combination but it doesnt work any more

[emmanuelorchardspathwayfam]

Do you have a printable digital copy of the graph paper you are using that you could add to this thread please?

[leodavis]

Where did you get the lock you use to demonstrate? Or failing that, does anyone know where I can get a similar one? I want to practice on a physical dial combination lock instead of "Sophie's Safecracking Simulator" haha

[loicmaria]

this serie very well made and explanations are easy to understand. Thx for that. I just have a questions, how do I know if a lock is 3 or 4 wheel on a locked safe ?

[Bushman]

OK, this is really cool. Thanks for this series. It makes me want to get myself a test to play with, since this method appears really harmless to do, even on a safe that is in use.

[NotAriaD]

What if I can't feel 1 of the 2 contacts. There is a circular ground safe at a school O work at that hasn't been open in 20 years. I want to try and open it. The dial also pushes in ward, not sure if that has an effect on it. Any help would be great.

[leodavis]

Does anyone know why my graph doesn't have a pattern to it? In other words, the top section is not mirrored with the bottom section. They look very different, even though I'm only about a third of the way done, but still. Lock Manipulator's graph was perfectly mirrored (Or near enough) and mine look nowhere near close to one another. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks In Advance

Hey man, watched your whole series but I'm having an issue. The safe I'm working on is an old Sentry Safe 2236 and the dial has "play" in it. Is this good, meaning I can easily feel the contact points or bad meaning the dial is worn and it essentially has a dead zone.

[CharlesLoring]

What happens if my gate patterns are inverted? I have a peak on my right contact point and a valley on my left.

[leodavis]

Can anyone explain what he means by "2 5/8" and "96 3/8"? Where are the eighths coming from? What's that all about? I'm confused

[mkivst]

the explanations is doing my head in. i am sure it can be simpler

[wreckinball]

Instead of plotting extra numbers wouldn't it be faster to just dial those combos starting in the center and working out?

[paulcashman]

Hey mate. These are excellent videos! Very easy to follow. Just one question. I have found my contact points between 60 and 71 but after mapping it appears that the gate signature might be within the contact points (i.e. at 69). Is this possible?

[MisterSunday]

So, would there be no advantage to recording at what number you pick each wheel up from the drive cam?
