Great posts scott, unfortunately its not showing any of your pics, just saying invalid link.
I still toy around with safes, do a Lil consultation, but when I lost my ability to carry I quit...and I don't quit anything!.
Since I can't see your pics, talking of roll pins..are you talking about the old mushroom pins ?
Feeling nostalgic now..I always enjoyed mystifying folks, like using impressioning a key to their car, using nothing but a blank, a pair of vice grips and a pippin file..would really float peoples boats lol.
Master keying..fun biggest job ever was 830 apartments.
For folks that don't know what I just said, with impressioning a key, you take a blank ( uncut ) key for whatever you need to fit the lock, mostly used on vehicles, take said blank clamp it with your vice grips, and ( tricky to explain ) basically you insert it into the lock and with some up and down motions the pins in the lock leave impressions on the key blank, so then you ( have to know wth you are doing lol ) and file the marks it leaves until the marks stop appearing, viola! Now you have a key...its more involved, but that's the basics.
Master keying is making a bunch of locks each use a different key, while also creating a master key which will operate all of the locks in the sequence, it is quite easy, though time consuming.
Could go into the fine art of opening safes/vaults..but I won't lol.

OK over yonder Scott ? Making me worry!

Folks,
Thought I'd post up this version of a song that most people have heard....this one is by the author of the song.
Buffy Sainte Marie - Up where we belong.
So, if we rub your head with a piece of iron and then float you in a tub, will you point north?
Ummmm.... there's a problem with E and W~
Ya know,not a problem, just depends on your point of view
Folks,
Another tune by Buffy Sainte Marie - Until it's time for you to go.
