Thanks for showcasing our lock. Really great video. Since then we have released a new lock called the Rotasera which is a disk detainer lock with our convoluted key design. We have not produced any 543's in a while as the Rotasera based padlocks replaced them for real world usage. One day we will make another batch of 543's for all the collectors who still would like to have one. If you want to check out a rotasera id be happy to send one over. Locknoob did a great video of the mechanism in that lock. That was sure funny at the end. For the record in order to get the socket head cap screws past the ball bearings you need to operate the key and open the cylinder so the balls can pull inwards and get out of the way. To our knowledge nobody has picked the 543. There are no videos we are aware of.

Everything you were saying at the beginning of this video reminded of something my mom, who is a painter and art educator, always tells me and her students. Everything creative, innovative, or new comes from someone taking two or more different objects or ideas and combining them. In this case taking a lock and the idea of a print in place, created something that nobody has seen before. In my mind that is the true definition of creativity and innovation. Thank you Adam for sharing this with us!

The opening to this video is a perfect example of why I love Adam so much: he talks about doing something not because there's an immediate use or benefit, but doing it because you're curious. One of THE BEST ways to encourage creativity and a scientific/engineering curiosity is to empower people who explore topics because it tickles their brain, not because of a specific application or utility it offers. I feel so happy that people like Adam exist, and offer their genuine excitement and support for people who do things just to see if they can do it, and who challenge themselves to try something new even if it seems silly, even if other people say it's a waste of time. They're feeding their curiosity, learning about how things work, and learning to use tools and systems they otherwise wouldn't -- and sometimes in entirely new ways.

[@krismueller]

I'd love to listen to you interview Lockpicking Lawyer. I think another point that is often forgotten about or overlooked is that when it comes to locks and doors and safes, its not that being 'proof' (pick proof/bludgeoning/cut proof...) but it's about the amount of time and effort it'd take to defeat/bypass it. The big chunk ot security, besides being a deterrent, is It provides a longer opportunity to stop a perpetrator by other means (like guards or law enforcement). ❤

[@brolohalflemming7042]

nothing on 2.. Pin 3 is binding.. Pin 3 is set.. Pin 4 has a spool.. Pin 4 is also spooling up the minigun that has dropped down from the ceiling panel.. The lock is a Bowley though, so it will survive. Tell Laura I love her. This is the Lockpicking Lawyer, signing off..

I love how you say a couple of times you were not going to show you fixing/putting it back together it in the video. then at the end the video cuts and comes back to you saying you thought thought about it off camera and looking at it, it looked easy to fix. Then you proceed to fix/put it back together in the video. It made me happy because I saw a part in the video (around the ending) that to me you were going to do it but pause a moment then stop yourself but end up doing it anyway.

Print in place engineering is absolutely going to continue to have huge impacts. So much of engineering is the compromises made for machining and assembly, how you actually fit the toolhead in there and then fit the parts inside each other. Even just 3d printing static designs has had a HUGE impact on things like rocket nozzles because it allows cooling channels to be integrated inside the walls of the nozzle while allowing the rest of the material to stay one monolithic piece with no joins or seams for ideal structural integrity.

[@writerpatrick]

It's also going to make devices unrepairable.

@@LeafBoye not practical for the regular homebody, now is it? Cars are already strongly leaned towards not being repairable by the owner like they were a few decades ago ... this would make them even more disposable and unrepairable. Look up some of the vehicles made in a way a body panel getting damaged is tens of thousands in a repair. Removing bumpers to replace headlight and foglight bulbs. The tech is great, but blindly believing it only leads to utopia is oblivious, ignorant, and quaint, but dangerous. Just like large Li-Ion batteries in EVs, not safe but it moves the cars with less space than NiMH! ... clown planet I'm happy for what things to to help in areas it really matters, like the rocket nozzle example; I loathe when it is casually brought to the masses to disable their independence and increasing the disposable world economy. 'throw it in the shredder and reprint it' ... fine for a plastic lock; not fine for a lot of other things that matter and doubly so for people without endless expendable budget. Some people are barely feeding themselves week to week; disposable world hurts them the most because they can't repair, they have to full price re-purchase or pay someone an arm and a leg to fix it. big world out there, remember to think outside your pond

As a locksmith and a locksporter I appreciate the confusion around taking apart and putting back together locks. 😂 The brass cover is called a slide over the pin chambers. The Bowley lock has always been such an interesting produced lock and just amazing engineering. Now if you want to see some other fun mass engineered locks look to Japan and the high end Miwa locks like the U9 and its brothers of lever locks that are crazy hard to pick. The high end Goal Z is truly a marvel and any of the high pin count dimple locks. The Evva 3KS with floating sliders and side bars and the MCS rotary magnetic lock.

[@MikkoTikkanen]

Definitely look into Abloy locks. Abloy Classic is a 100+ years old lock, the grandfather of disc retainers that extremely simple in it's construction, still being sold and still considered rather secure, after 100 years. The more modern ones are impossible to get to and are works of art, you can't even tension them as the small changes to it's construction now require all discs to rotate in unison before you even get to the part where you know if it's going to unlock or not. Why I love them personally is that, other than being from Finland as am I, the design does not rely on complex set of fiddly springs and pins but instead extremely simple set of few parts, even the modern ones, and still being extremely secure. Beauty in design and simplicity as making anything complex is easy, making them simple is real hard.

I love that you don't just stop the video to squirrel away a problem, but show the journey through the details.

[@JVL0110]

It's quite widely used production method at least in the plastics printing industry where big powder bed printers are used, they can print parts in place without supports so you can make pretty complex interlocking parts that are impossible to make with traditional production methods like machining. It can even be used with metal 3D printers, depending on part geometry and parameters. Source: I operate metal printers for work.

Arrrgh! I know that feeling. Most recent for me was my cat got her claw stuck and knocked the F key off my Asus laptop keyboard. You’d think that’s no big deal, but there are three nylon pieces and the keycap which have to go together in one specific way and the problem is that it is really difficult to figure out how because it has to be done underneath the keycap which you can’t see through. I’ve repaired equipment for almost 50 years and know a lot of tricks, but this job took four hours to get right, but I wasn’t going to let it go until I got it right. In the end I got a great appreciation for the engineering of something which contained mere pennies worth of nylon and ABS. The thing that bends my mind is how the heck the entire keyboard is manufactured at scale. Even now that I know the assembly trick, it still takes me 20 seconds or so to put the key assembly together. There must be a really amazing machine which can handle all approximately 80 keys at once so that Asus can pay less than 10 Dollars for the keyboard of a computer which sells for about 200 Dollars at retail. Just amazing.

What a great side quest! You really locked this episode down!

[@travisvinson6917]

at 8:32... the key reminded me of the key that Priest Cornelius carried in "The 5th Element"

Aziz, light!

[@abbynormalz]

​@@IndustrialJonessigh "Aziz, light!"

[@garagemakerguy1808]

Looks similar to the key used in "Fifth Element"...Beautiful!

I have Bowley lock on my front door. I was initially concerned about the fragility of the key, as well. I'm here to tell you it is NOT a concern. It's machined from stainless and you can't bend or break that key without tools. I assure you, the Kwikset key on your keychain is far more bendable/breakable than the Bowley key.

[@twilightsass517]

Even though you spent a fair amount of the first part of the video saying you wouldn't show putting it back together I appreciate the effort and would liked to have seen more of your frustration in doing so.

Adam: "...you can pick it with a booger and a straw." LPL: "Challenge accepted." Proceeds to pick a Masterlock with booger and a straw.

[@matthewcox7985]

LPL had a lock, Batallion-something-or-other, that you could pick with cooked spaghetti!

[@perpetualtech5906]

" That is a boring problem. " lol I loved that comment. Love your videos, Adam! Thank you

[@higherstandard710]

I loved getting locks my hs couldn’t cut or hack. This would be a dream for a prankster like me in high school lol

[@bllfrg777]

If you ever find yourself planning to go to northwestern Virginia for some reason, see if you can finagle a factory tour at Medeco. You would love their setup, they're basically a huge machine shop that makes lock parts that are over-engineered to a spectacular degree.

I'm here for the lockpicking lawyer comments

[@baronvandragon2427]

On my tractor trailer, I use an Enforcer 1217 Adjustable Swing Door Trailer Lock. It wraps around the door bars on the trailer with two adjustable pieces of rather heavy grade steel. The padlock shank has holes punched through both plates. When locked, the shank is pulled tight into a groved bar that holds the all in place. For the final touches, the pad part of the lock sits in a curved armored housing with an asymmetrical curved key to lock and unlock it. There are pictures of other trailers using this lock during a roll-over accident. The trailer was wrecked, but the lock held and kept the doors closed.

[@tomhorsley6566]

You said you'd include a link to the 3D printable lock. I see no link.

[@Cunundrum1]

The printed lock has the same level of security as anything made by Masterlock at a fraction of the price! Definitely want the file!

[@JoJo-ke5yz]

@@Cunundrum1 True, since the only thing keeping anyone from getting past a Master lock is not having the desire to get past it.

[@Odysseus311]

I agree, where is the link! I have search printables, thangs and thingiverse and can't find it!

[@kkrugel]

I am also looking for the link for this!

[@erebostd]

@@kkrugel he wanted to include it, but it’s nowhere…

[@thomasgeorge1836]

Part 2 of this video was a perfect illustration of my life. Hahaha. Keep up the good work brother.

[@mattlampe]

Where's the link to the 3d printed lock!? I really want to print that now.

[@jonathandaigle5518]

Hey there! I'm the designer here, I wanted to say thanks for the interest and 1 I didn't know I was giving him the lock or that he would talk about it in a video. I wasn't able to give him the link, it's certainly not their fault for missing the link. And they shouldn't be faulted for not supplying it. 2 you can find it on printables searching "lock and key" it's in a bundle pack of my printed in place locks.

Been watching him for a couple of years. Fun show. I've even dabbled into that sport or hobby a little bit.
