How To Make Your Own Tubular Lockpick

This document provides instructions for making a tubular lock pick out of a key by cutting the key so it no longer presses on the lock pins, adding rubber bands to hold replacement split pins that can be used to press down the pins individually in order to unlock the lock. The instructions include cutting the key tip, cutting slots in the key to match the pin locations, adding rubber bands, bending metal split pins to fit in the slots, and using the modified key to individually set the pins and unlock the lock.

Pick

1. Make sure you have the following materials available:

2. Make sure you have the following tools available:


- Pliers (to cut and bend)
- cutting wheel (dremel)
- grinder
3. First start by cutting the extension on top of the key off so the key can be
removed and inserted at any time:

4. Next follow the already existing pin cuts and cut them straight to the top of
the key:
5. The result is a (in this case not so beautiful ☺) key which won’t press on any
pins anymore when inserted in the lock.

6. Now wind the rubbers band around the key so that the key can still be
inserted into the lock:
7. Cut the split pins into lengths of 2cm (you’ll need one for every cut you’ve
just made):

8. Bend the split pins into an L shape:


9. Put all the split pins under the rubber bands into the cuts in the key:

10. Your pick is done now.


Just put the pick in the lock and press down the pins one by one. You can
now turn the key and open the lock:
