Designing a mechanism to stop lock pickers in their tracks. Engineering this unpickable lock was a grueling process that tested my patience and had me questioning if it could really be done. Over two months of drawing, CAD-ing, laser cutting, machining, assembly, and testing.

Special thanks to Kendric the Locksmith and & Emerald Locksmith in helping with user testing and pick-ability. Also thanks to Omar for helping with the machined parts of the build.
