Involves a bic pen.....check it out. I would love to have a claw machine in my house, I just like winning at things that give me a prize for such. |

I think those Chicago Locks are a much tougher than most other barrel locks though. I tried the cardboard trick, bic trick, tried making my own picks, and even made a metal dummy key out of an old fuel line. That lock did not budge for me until it looked like the lock in Haruman's photo. I had a nice impact drill as well and it took me a few hours of straight drilling. The thing was solid. Of course, it could be that I am inept at lock picking, I won't doubt that for a second, but I have never seen a vending machine ransacked in the wild. Given that there are so many unattended machines out there, I think I would come across this by now if all you needed was a lighter and a Bic pen. |
