Gutted my yellow American Lock 1100

At first glance, this 1100 does not appear as though it should be any more difficult to pick than the blue one I was working on earlier but it has proven to be a challenge for me. Normally, I would wait until I could pick the lock 3 times. Worked on trying to pick it, on and off, for about two weeks when I threw in the towel and decided to gut it. It has what you would expect:

  • Three standard key pins
  • Two serrated key pins
  • Two serrated spool drivers
  • Three serrated drivers

I will start progressive pinning it and work it like I did the blue one. Here we go!
