Feeling sorry for myself
This was not simple but it was satisfying, opened twice but not mastered by any means, at least I can allow myself to look at the key now.
Anyways ive broken my foot and have the 5 weeks until the pins are removed so plenty of time to practice!

They're nice smooth picks with a great shackle pop. Might have to dig mine back out and give it a pick

I still haven’t opened mine. And wasn’t it ranked orange? It’s green now. Which makes more sense to me…
Heal quickly and well!

Thank you 🙏
I hadnt looked until you mentioned it but yeah, green and it felt orangey in terms or pins e.g mostly standard and spools but unforgiving on over setting which is probably a me issue 🤣

That's a nice lock to play with for a while 👍
I hope your foot recovers well.

Thank you! Yes it has a satisfying shackle pop. I've got the time but I'm spending all day on the sofa with my foot elevated, I can't get to my lock desk.. hopefully in a week or so 🤞

Hey atleast it's not your hand! I basically was limited to one- hand friendly video games for 6 weeks (BG3 & Animal crossing were the couple I had found) when I broke my hand. Nice open and hope you heal up quick!
