Breaking a Master Lock

Breaking a Master Lock

by Richard Rastetter

A couple of weeks ago I wanted to open a Masterlock. After reading those long articles on how to "crack" the combination, I tried it, and failed. Then I saw the article about drilling into it, that sounds fast, but it requires a drill, and knowledge on where to drill, plus if the lock is on a locker, it is kinda hard to flip the lock around and drill. I came up with my own way (to my knowledge) using a screwdriver,...

Simple Steps To Opening A Locked Door

By
The Lord of the Rings

Ya' know those little metal "slot covers" inside your
computer. The ones you have to remove to put a modem in one of the
slots. Got a little hole in the bent over end, and the other end
is almost flat off, but it sort of tapers a little. Well, anyway,
the metal is thin and fairly flexible. Insert the long flat...

Beating Tubular Locks without Damage

by Lord Mixtur

Tubular locks are used on many things. What is a wonder, is that they're used in areas where high security is required. The wonder I mention, is that I learned to beat a tubular lock before I entered 7th grade!

Well, the theory here is that tension must be kept on the lock, whilst the pins are being depressed. The theory is simple, but in practice, it is more complicated than that.

Alarms

by Broken English

The most common alarm system is the EAS system known as 'tags and towers'. It is, simply put, towers by the doors and 'hard' and 'soft' tags on the goods in the shops. EAS is easy to get round (in alot of shops it's simply a case of following the power lead to the wall and pulling the plug out. Most towers now days have a power lead that goes dirrectly into the wall, but the wall socket still has a removable fuse, which is handy). Some stores...

A Weakness in Cheap Imitation Combinations Locks

by B|u

My definition of a cheap lock is a lock that is not a master lock. Usually the easiest way to tell if the lock is cheap is when the dial on the lock is a different color than black, such as blue or red or yellow. You can also tell if it's a shitty lock when you turn the dial and it doesn't rotate smoothly.

Now here is the easy part. All you need to do is remove one of your socks from your feet or bring...

Rockets for Rookies

by Even Steven

Popular terminology makes a distinction between jets and rockets: a jet takes in air from the atmosphere; a rocket needs no air supply, as it carries its own supply of oxygen. Both types of engines operate by expelling a stream of gas at high speed from a nozzle at the after end of the vehicle. Rockets are distinguished by the means used to produce exhaust material. The most common type of rocket engine obtains its high-pressure...

Raging Rockets

by Ryan

You know those rocket engines that you use in those model rocket kits? Wanna have some fun with them? This is what you do. First take knife and carve out the end with the hole in it until you reach the black powder. After that if you have a wick (green ones work best) shove it into the hole the tape it up so only the wick is sticking out. Next light the thing and run! The rocket can either explode, fly into the air, spiral on the ground...

RDX(Cyclonite)

RDX, or cyclonite, is a very insensitive high explosive compound. The actual chemical name is cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine, although the chemical names hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine; Hexogen; trimethylenetrinitramine; sym-trimethylenetrinitramine ;Hexolite; 1,3,5-trinitrohexahydro-p-triazine; 1,3,5-trinitrohexahydro-s-triazine; cyclotrimrthylene-trinitramine; 1,3,5-triaza-1,3,5-trinitrocyclohexane; trinitrohexahydrotriazine; and T4 are also...

RDX or Cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine

R.D.X., also called cyclonite, or composition C-1 (when mixed with plasticisers) is one of the most valuable of all military explosives. This is because it has more than 150% of the power of T.N.T., and is much easier to detonate. It should not be used alone, since it can be set off by a not-too severe shock. It is less sensitive than mercury fulminate, or nitroglycerine, but it is still too sensitive to be used alone. R.D.X. can...
