When
you
remo

e
the
ligh
t
pressure,
the
pin
springs
bac
k
up
slightly
.
Set
pins
also
rattle
if
y
ou
ic
k
them
with
the
pick.
T
ry
listening
for
that
sound.
Run
the
pick
ov
er
the
pins
and
try
to
decide
whether
the
set
pins
are
in
the
front
or
back
of
the
lo
c
k
(or
b oth).
T
ry
iden
tifying
exactly
which
pins
are
set.
Remem
b er
that
pin
one
is
the
frontmost
pin
(i.e.,
the
pin
that
a
k
ey
touc
hes
rst).
The
most
imp ortant
skill
of
lo ck
picking
is
the
ability
to
recognize
correctly
set
pins.
This
exercise
will
teac
h
y
ou
that
skill.
T
ry
rep
eating
this
exercise
with
the
plug
turning
in
the
other
direction.
If
the
fron
t
pins
set
when
the
plug
is
turned
one
w
a
y
,
the
bac
k
pins
will
set
when
the
plug
is
turned
the
other
wa
y
.
See
Figure
6.2
for
an
explanation.
One
wa
y
to
verify
how
man
y
pins
are
set
is
to
release
the
torque,
and
coun
t
the
clic
ks
as
the
pins
snap
back
to
their
initial
p osition.
T
ry
this.
T
ry
to
notice
the
dierence
in
sound
b etw
een
the
snap
of
a
single
pin
and
the
snap
of
t
w
o
pins
at
once.
A
pin
that
has
b
een
false
set
will
also
mak
e
a
snapping
sound.
T
ry
this
exercise
with
dierent
amoun
ts
of
torque
and
pressure.
Y
ou
should
notice
that
a
larger
torque
requires
a
larger
pressure
to
mak
e
pins
set
correctly
.
If
the
pressure
is
to o
high,
the
pins
will
b e
jammed
into
the
hull
and
stay
there.

Exercise
5:
Pro
jection
As
y
ou
are
doing
the
exercises
try
building
a
picture
in
y
our
mind
of
what
is
going
on.
The
picture
do es
not
hav
e
to
b e
visual,
it
could
b e
a
rough
understanding
of
which
pins
are
set
25
and
how
muc
h
resistance
y
ou
are
encountering
from
each
pin.
One
wa
y
to
foster
this
picture
building
is
to
try
to
remember
y
our
sensations
and
b eliefs
ab out
a
lo ck
just
b efore
it
op ened.
When
a
lo ck
op ens,
don't
think
"that's
ov
er",
think
"what
happ
ened".
This
exercise
requires
a
lo
c
k
that
you
nd
easy
to
pic
k.
It
will
help
you
rene
the
visual
skills
y
ou
need
to
master
lo
c
k
picking.
Pick
the
lo ck,
and
try
to
remember
ho
w
the
pro
cess
felt.
Rehearse
in
y
our
mind
ho
w
ev
erything
feels
when
the
lo
c
k
is
pick
ed
prop erly
.
Basically
,
you
wan
t
to
create
a
movie
that
records
the
pro cess
of
picking
the
lo ck.
Visualize
the
motion
of
y
our
muscles
as
they
apply
the
correct
pressure
and
torque,
and
feel
the
resistance
encountered
b
y
the
pick.
Now
pick
the
lo
c
k
again
trying
to
match
your
actions
to
the
mo
vie.
By
rep
eating
this
exercise,
y
ou
are
learning
how
to
formulate
detailed
commands
for
your
muscles
and
ho
w
to
in
terpret
feedback
from
your
senses.
The
men
tal
rehearsal
teac
hes
you
how
to
build
a
visual
understanding
of
the
lo
c
k
and
how
to
recognize
the
ma
jor
steps
of
picking
it.
