(1153) Challenge: Rune's Norwegian Gotcha

[@THR33STEP]

The machining on those pins is fantastic!!

[@bosnianbill]

😃👍

[@RPRosen-ki2fk]

Bill, you are a ... god, so glad you didn't give up, and Rune outstanding demonstration of the power of good security pins! We are so fortunate this didn't end up lost and collecting dust ... at the post office.

[@W2Report]

Beautiful work on those pins, Rune.

[@candyquahogmarshmallow8257]

We write the 7 with a line through it specifically for this type of mistake. I think it was first used in the military (like a line through the 0 incase if it was written fast and looked like a 6 or something).

[@sarnold1277]

Great lock, Rune! Great pick, Bill!

[@zacharypetty8539]

That was fun watching you squirm on this one. Great as usual.

[@martyhastings9347]

Interesting lock, after seeing the pins,that was one sweet pick,............nice.

[@AlbertLebel]

Well done Bill. Those pins were awesome too. Very good challenge lock.

[@roncalabrese305]

love some of these longer vids . great vid.

[@caveman123ization]

Great lock and excellent job, Bill.

[@72cmcinc]

That was a heck of a challenge, great pins in there!

[@CrimFerret]

If there had been threading and undercuts on that core and bible, it might have been almost unpickable with those pins.

[@larryg7336]

That was a great pick Mr.Bill,had you working on it a bit,but one great pick.

[@tristanrempel9662]

Wow! I wasnt even wearing headphones and I could hear the crickets in the background

[@grantbadger-roberts1611]

This is awesome to watch. I am really new to this sort of stuff I am having lots of fun with it.

[@koltinn]

It's actually from biltema which is a hardware store chain in Scandinavia

[@verliebt3465]

automotive themed store, they sell parts, tools, oil, car accesories and some random stuff, like fishing stuff, bicycles, toys.

[@1oldteck]

I really love the new intros.. that's is an incredible talant! ! And love the videos..

[@Aceoffroad4x4]

B.E.A utiful!!! Awesome "pretty standard" lock!!! Awesome video Bosnianbill!!

[@Level1Bob]

That lock may have almost destroyed Bill, but it didn't Rune him.

[@gilbertodiazcastro8871]

AWESOME!!! Thanks for not giving up and sharing with us. I’ve always wondered, how do they cut those tiny pins? A tiny lathe?

[@mysticvirgo9318]

Locksmiths do it under tension. :)

[@RPRosen-ki2fk]

Now that's a ... TEE-SHIRT!

[@MatrixExpress]

When a Locksmith get divorced that is counter-rotation ;-)

[@PronteCo]

This may be a very stupid question: but why aren't expensive cores be made more like this? These pins don't look too hard to manufacture

[@lmars5933]

I thought it was a fail lol.thanks for sharing. 😎⛤⛧⛦⛧⛦

[@norskkverrulant6056]

This is made from a BILTEMA lock.Video (378) on Bosnianbill's channel.

[@hardcodedsoftware4212]

norsk kverrulant I have pointed this out on several other videos, nobody seems to care I love pointing it out though!

[@bmbullman]

Bill- Hello from Falls Church! We have the same Post Office! How do you always know which pin you are touching? Is it just years of doing this, or are you looking at how far your pick is inserted into the keyway?

[@andersjjensen]

It took me about two weeks to get the hang of which pin I am om without having to count them from the back every single time.

[@andrewdutchover1065]

Can someone point me towards some material describing the jargon used? I work with locks a bit and understand mostly what's going on but I don't know what "fault set" or "counter rotation".

[@andrewdutchover1065]

Means

[@pow_dunx]

False set means a pin or pins is hung up on the ledge of the cylinder, caused by the tension and picking of the pins. Counter-rotation is a feedback you feel when picking some types of security pins. When you have a false set and need to overcome a spool pin, the second wide span of the spool will push back against your tensioner making it feel like the lock is pushing back as you try to drive that pin upwards. The solution is to lighten the tension to reduce the binding on that security pin. Hope this helps.

[@glasslinger]

Would a buzz gun or a snap gun work? Or is that cheating?

[@andersjjensen]

7 pin locks are hard to snap or buzz to begin with. Add security pins and it gets harder.... especially with spools. Add different springs and/or a few steel driver pins (they have different weight) and it gets really really tough. Add T style keypins and you can be almost certain that it will be faster to single pin pick it... Which in this case took a heluva lot better picker than I 56 minutes....

[@JimBailey]

Thanks Bill

[@micbanand]

Pretty nice Lock!

[@racerx9413]

This channel is very interesting. Can you recommend a decent begginers pick set? 👍

[@andersjjensen]

The Dangerfield Praxis kit is awesome and not too expensive. Bill did a review of it about a year back.

[@RoeLunatic4ever]

Nice pick!

[@hotwill100]

What am I going to do with you. I was just about to head to work and your video poped up. Good video keep up the good work

[@paullinnell]

Long time to wait! Too bad the PO didn’t know how to read the European 7!

[@johnfrancisdoe1563]

Paul Linnell We don't always put the cross line on our 7s .

[@jeremylewis4450]

Practice makes perfect and i think bill knows what i mean? Makes for a good portion of videos but enough said i love them

[@KarlMcClelland]

Hi Bill. What camera are you using? (keep up the amazing work)

[@emeralddoge3725]

Bravica TITAN SD5 is it possible to open this one with hairpins what do ya think

[@molie77]

Nice lock uncle bill

[@hardcodedsoftware4212]

molie77 I also think uncle bill did good

[@twofeathersmark]

Hi there iv a super sesame combo lock ! And I'm have loads of trouble decoding it can you HELP please 🤓🤔😁

[@IronieLiestDuNie]

That was a nice intro.

[@omgitsjoetime]

Awesome

[@MrWeAllAreOne]

You sound and manoeuvre just like a dentist lol.

[@_aullik]

how do you write a 1 in murica than?

[@BurnieBaker]

Either a straight line or not as pronounced of a "hook" on the top of it :)

[@Thedoug369]

What a bitchy lock. Bill, you have the patience of a freakin Saint! Great pickin!

[@tier12211]

I must ask, who does your intros to the video, it seems like a different one every other video lol. Well done on the pick though, those were well machined pins indeed

[@jarroddraper5140]

Joseph DiGiovanni no clue but i think i saw 1 repeat in all the videos but it mighta been the same video

[@russellmoore8187]

Bill, where do you stack up among locksmiths? Are you 90th percentile? 99th? Do you send challenge locks to anybody? Love this channel.

[@x40ozSkiLz]

Your panavice is awesome but you should think about the original vice every now and again. The lock moves a lot when you are picking, which would not happen when it is in a door. I believe that may hinder your feedback. Just a thought...

[@bastian433]

It sure looks like the old ASSA locks we use at work at some places still, even the keys... I think they are ASSA SCD what I remember

[@andersjjensen]

Nope, Just a key compatible clone from Biltema. If you look at the core you can see it is of cheaper machining.. I have a couple of them, and they are nasty hard even in stock form.

[@Pcontracts83]

kult, rune

[@artmallory970]

"Norwegian" right after "Denmarkian" seriously bill?

[@AngryHatter]

Or zeros with a slash through it so you know it is not the letter 'O'

[@johnfrancisdoe1563]

AngryHatter That's mostly a computer thing (IBM printouts for example). However in Norway where Rune is from there is a real letter Ø in their alphabet so the alternative computer convention of printing a dot in the middle of zeroes is preferable.

[@MrDameDred]

My goodness, the machine work on these locks always makes me cringe...

[@JasonStevenRyan]

The lock looks like Bane.

[@MatejVelican]

"How they write sevens" hahahahahhahahha

[@tsfcancerman]

Ruuunnneee if you want to say his name, that means drag out all other letters then the R.

[@Joh447]

Is pronounced "roon e" not rune

[@AMStationEngineer]

If you think that your "1's" ordeal is bad, try having to file a handwritten flight plan, with EUROCONTROL during the 1980's.... (with "parochial school handwriting", no-less")

[@Dropler8]

you are saying his name wrong but i can put out a video with that name and how you say it right

[@ppipowerclass]

Come on Bill, you're talking about US Government employees here!!!

[@GJCorby2007]

The post office has been privatized for years

[@GJCorby2007]

Privatized since 1979

[@johnvradenburg192]

#2 lol

[@machenka]

I didn’t know that we Europeans writes 1’s different than you Americans. I will remember to not put that top line on my 1’s when sending stuff to the US going forward!

[@molie77]

*pick

[@tarantel582]

42.

[@simenasp8177]

rune is pronounced Runé

[@adelarsen9776]

Rrr ooh neh

[@denniswingerstad9424]

Gr8 updates to e really cheap lock. The original lock this seems to be made from is from biltema, 33 usd for both internal and external lock... www.biltema.se/sv/Bygg/Las/Lascylinder/Lascylinderset-2000024280/

[@macmacox]

I want a waffle stamp. why doesn't the U.S. have a waffle stamp

[@johnfrancisdoe1563]

macmacox That was a theme stamp for a special occasion, something about sailors.

[@positronalpha]

It's pronounced rooneh - in fact, rooneh is also a pretty bad pronunciation, but the proper pronunciation would be way too hard for non-Scandinavians :D.

[@johnfrancisdoe1563]

positronalpha Anyway, the name is the same as the name of our pre-christianity alphabet, so pronouncing the same is not that bad. Now the English worlds modern mispronunciation of king Knuth the great is quite the abomination, his name isn't spelled "Kanut" for a reason.

[@moderatefkr6666]

bosnianbill, I believe the correct pronunciation of the Norwegian name Rune is RUNA. Es are like our As.

[@andersjjensen]

Nope. Our Es is like the E you have at the end of "the" (in this case.. we have a couple others for good measure).

[@igorsvacic217]

european or not those are some BAD ones.It does look like sevens.The small line should point downward,very steap angle.This is almos 90 angle,so,seven it is. The sixes are also like small "b",ridicolous,he either has 6 years or in his whole life never wrote one booklet of letters/numbers. it really looks like a 6 year old wrote the adress

[@positronalpha]

Nice. Do you want me to have a go at your attempt to write in English? That was a rhetorical question - you don't want that, and I don't want to be a bully. Don't be a bully.

[@userPrehistoricman]

Please use your space bar more frequently

[@igorsvacic217]

dude,english's not my native language,and I never claimed to be fluent in it in the first place.I speak/write engklish,italian,and a bit of german and spanish. BUT,to know how to write fucking letters and numbers....c'mon.Look at that adress.Just look at it.Would you give to the creator of that over 6 years?

[@jarroddraper5140]

igor svakurac no its better then my chicken scraches for words

[@positronalpha]

igor svakurac Where did you see Rune claim to be a master calligrapher? I see someone taking the time and money to send a good challenge lock to our favorite Bill, for our enjoyment. I do not see a reason to be a dick about his handwriting skills, just as there's no reason to be a dick about your typing skills. That the post office could not figure it out is worth criticism, though, since a big part of their job is figuring out where stuff is going.
