Donations are also being sought from businesses and individuals for door prizes and raffle items. While the pin tumbler cylinder is by far the most popular door locking mechanism in the United States, it is not the only kind of keyed lock in common use. The large board has locks with eight different keyways, representing many of the most common keyway designs used in the US. These are typically pin tumbler locks, but their orientation is "upside down" with respect to the convention for locks installed in the United States. Many inexpensive locks are grossly misaligned, making them quite forgiving of chaotic picking technique. Other lock types include "European profile" cylinders, master keyed locks, master ring and SFIC cylinders, tubular pin tumbler locks, dimple-key pin tumbler locks, pin tumbler locks with secondary locking mechanisms, wafer tumbler locks, disk tumbler locks, lever tumbler locks, combination locks, and electronic locks. Since billiards is a game of finesse, it takes a lot of practice to master the game. If a billiards ball is rolling around on the table, it has momentum. We ask if, given two points on a particular table, you can always shine a laser (idealized as an infinitely thin ray of light) from one point to the other.

In fact, master keyed pin stacks are easier to pick than those that are single-keyed; there are two chances to lift a cut to the shear line. However, because they jam when false set, locks with serrated pins tend to impression very well (impressioning is a decoding technique that produces a working key based on marks left on a progressively cut key blank). If you can pick all (or at least most) of the locks on this board, you are well prepared against the typical locks installed in residential and commercial buildings in the US. Master ring cylinders (which are no longer in common commercial production but were once marketed by Corbin) use this mechanism to provide independently-keyed master keying. Snooker Cues: Snooker cues are lighter (16-18 ounces) and longer (57-58 inches) with a thinner shaft and smaller tip diameter (9-10.5mm). This design enables precise cue ball control for the smaller snooker balls and the intricate positional play required in snooker, a game emphasizing strategy and finesse. The most common security pins are the "spool" and "mushroom" top pin designs, which are thinner in their mid-section.

It is most common in traditional billiards to use only three balls. Luckily, an English billiards table has exactly the same dimensions as a snooker table, so you can certainly rig a solution by using a few re-appropriated snooker balls. The name "snooker" refers to one of the game's principal strategies: when you "snooker" an opponent, you create a situation in which they can't hit their ball in an easy, what is billiards straight line. The name comes from the resemblance to an empty spool of thread. Figure 6. Abus "spool" top pin. See Figure 7 for an example of a serrated pin. While many of the principles of pin tumbler lock picking apply or can be adapted to other mechanical lock designs, a complete discussion of these locks and techniques for defeating them is beyond the scope of this document. Tubular locks suffer from the same manufacturing imperfections as other locks and so can be picked with essentially the same techniques. Alternatively, you can use the rounded edge of an inverted hook pick instead of a special rake pick. In a lock with six pin stacks with a uniform chance of a pin setting at either shear line, the probability of a picked lock actually opening is only 1/64. Picking techniques for these locks involve the use of special torque tools designed to put torque on only one of the two concentric plugs.

These locks are no more or less inherently secure than standard pin tumbler locks, although the external exposure of their pins makes picking them (and designing sophisticated picking tools for them) somewhat simpler. The billiard table also underwent modification since players had to keep picking up balls on the ground. Keep reading to find out more about the different games. Most pin tumbler cylinders can be "master keyed" to allow more than one key bitting to operate it. Very "wavy" rake picks can simulate various key profiles, and can be surprisingly successful at opening poorly-made locks. There are locks with two, five, and six pins in each keyway, but the keying codes aren't labeled on them. This technique requires a great deal of practice to master, but has the surprising property of sometimes being more effective against better made locks. The usual scheme for master keying involves using more than one cut in some or all pin stacks (this is accomplished by adding additional pin segments). Each pins has a groove cut in its side at the position corresponding to its correct rotation. The first sign of spool and mushroom pins is that the lock will appear to be picked, but will only turn a few degrees.
