(33) A Deep Dive Into The ASSA Twin Models - Twins Part 2

[@redwanderer]

This is my go-to video whenever someone has a question about the twin series - amazing work.

[@whelenguy]

Very amazing video! ASSA Max+ dealer myself, always looked for a video like this!

[@thelockpickinglebowski633]

Thanks. Now I can identify a couple of ASSA mortise cylinders in my collection.

Very cool video, I learned so much, but there's one ASSA Twin you forgot. The Lockwood twin, with no countermilling, standard lockwood spools, and only three sidebar pins which may or may not have false gates that do nothing, the Fredo of the Twin family. (I know it's got nothing to do with the patent you're discussing, it is technically an Assa Twin though hahaha )

[@ArtichokeTwoThousand]

Hey Lemon! I have been working closely with the AUS lock community and don't you worry! My next major project is Australian locking systems. But to specifically answer your question ASSA calls many things "twins" like the combi lockwood and dp. This presentation is really about the "classic" twin that is a derivation of the original 6000 patent.

@@ArtichokeTwoThousand ooh that is very exciting news, I'm keen to see that, and I was just having fun with ya, great video haha

[@cloudtest7096]

How this guy is not recording any more video… it is literally sad!

[@Mick777Oz]

Great video, as usual, Arti.

[@zaprowsdower3911]

Great video describing the Assa twin locks. I'm working on picking an Assa v10 right now. I was able to pick a Medico after picking it on and off for a year and a half. Just subcribed keep up the cool videos.

[@UnChaeL-Paradise]

Finally got around to watching this. Love it! I’m not saying I’m becoming a fan boy but I do like me some artichoke with ranch dip! Lol 😂🌴

[@Pyrolock]

The only thing your left out was the fact that the sidebar is "reversible" to allow for two different keys with corresponding matching side milling (which I'm sure you will get into in part 3) -- suburb presentation which outlines everything I knew about the twins as well, excepting Oops, I did learn that the V-10 the was called the "Twin 2" in Germany -- Thanks for sharing

[@kotzikacki7658]

Very good and informative video, love it! Just one thing: in your list of picked twins and in the video the twin combi is completely missing.

[@HVLogic]

Excellent Video as always.

[@jeancerrien3016]

Wonderful video! I would love to know more about the master-keying capabilities you refer to @4:11. Since the chirality of a pin doesn't change, I struggle to see how a master key might interact differently.

[@ArtichokeTwoThousand]

I don't know exactly how it is done but here is my assumption (i may be totally wrong)... if you look at a singular chamber for a side pin in the v10 you can install either a left or right pin. Lets say you have one lock that has a right pin installed with an associated 4 cut in its sidebar and a second lock with a left pin installed and an associated 3 cut in its sidebar. You can have a master key with cuts 4R and 3L in that same position while the other lower lever keys would have cut 3 for both left and right OR cut 4 both left and right in that position.

Thank you so so much

[@danareed1656]

great video! thank you!

[@LockFumbler]

What an amazing video 👌👌👌 Thank you very much for creating this 👍👍

[@madhousepatient9994]

Excellent video. Thanks. Question: Where does the ASSA Twin Combi fit in with this?

[@ArtichokeTwoThousand]

Great question... the Combi shares the name "twin" but has a totally different side mechanism with sidepins that need rotation and lifting. This is based on a totally different patent and why it is not included in this video. I did make another video kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4CsZoWcjaxqo7c that goes over that lock. There is one error in the video which I discuss in the description of the video. Thanks

[@RetepReyem]

Well Done :) Thanks Cheers
