interesting concept, how does $250 rank among costs for similar locks?

https://www.bowleylockcompany.com/store/c1/Featured_Products... comes to mind as another "unpickable" lock provider

The prices are vastly different, but the 250 is for a pre-production demo model, I'd expect the price to be halved or more upon production

While very cool and seemingly well-designed, this seems like a derivative of the lock developed by the YouTuber StuffMadeHere. A little strange to see someone applying for a patent for a version of someone else's design.

Not the LockPickingLawyer (I hope he gets his hands on one soon) but here's a video review/demonstration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNHFyc1oMwU

I’m looking forward to sometime next month or so: “Little click on one…”

What if Andrew Magill is lockpickinglawyer!

I agree, it seems a little strange.

I also seem to recall that the LockPickingLawyer was able to break that lock using two separate methods that I didn't see addressed in the article, so I wonder how much this person just copied StuffMadeHere..

This looks very similar to the design[0] by Stuff Made Here (and collaborative hardening [1] suggestions by Lock Picking Lawyer)…an excellent set of videos.

LockPickingLawyer[1] might have something to say about "unpickable". [1] https://www.youtube.com/c/lockpickinglawyer

He hasn't picked a Bowley lock yet, which is designed to have a wall in front of the lock with a weird key shape. Some other people have though.

LPL was actually challenged a year ago with unpickable prototypes made by an engineering YouTuber, Stuff Made Here:
