Creative and interesting fabrication, This has potential for low security things like a gate or shed that would normally have no lock just a latch.
Really clever idea. I’ve never seen this done before. Super cool and nice workmanship 🙂👍
Very cool. Brilliant work.
Congratulations!!! A great work. El único "problema" que le veo es que si alguien se lo encuentra abierto puede deducir la combinación con mucha facilidad,
Very useful, it can be opened with a screwdriver!
Nice
🤣🤣
Or a hammer lol
😂😂😂
😂
Amazing! I know this could be easily hacked to open , but it would be a good temporary lock if I was gonna be away from the shed to go pick up parts or something.
Muito fácil de abrir, se manter forçado o trinco você acha facilmente o sulco da primeira porca e assim com as outras duas abrindo em poucos segundo.
Forçando e girando dá pra abrir em menos de 15 segundos... Deveriam haver sulcos obstruídos em cada número para ficando apenas os da senha desobstruídos, assim dificultava um pouco mais...
Parabens! Muito bom!👏👏👏👏👏
Чтобы открыть такой засов, достаточно открутить четыре самореза)))
Вместо саморезов могут использоваться болты. Снаружи заварены и зачищены, а гайка изнутри. Да и саморезы можно просто сваркой капнуть и зачистить и не открутишь ничего.
@Димас Я, все гораздо проще. Крутишь первую гайку, находишь отверстие, двигаешь шпингалет. Затем крутишь вторую, продвигаешь шпингалет дальше Третью - тем же способом. Открыть такой замок - минутное дело. И без каких-либо инструментов.
@@Vladimir62K даже шпингалет двигать не надо - зона для гаек имеет зазоры, гайки там не плотно сидят, с боку если смотреть, то пазы в них будет видно. Ему надо было штыри в шпингалете делать с обратной стороны, чтоб они были в дверь направлены, а не к открывающему. 😏
@@Vladimir62K если совпадет только первая гайка, не откроется. Внимательнее надо быть.
@@user-zt2tl3cr4x хорошо, буду внимательнее. Если только первая гайка совпадет, то, конечно не откроется. Но через несколько секунд совпадут все.
Super pomysł i wykonanie, ale ... obyś zawsze pamiętał szyfr! Miałem zamek szyfrowy do wejścia do mieszkania. Kiedyś wróciłem po zakrapianej imprezie i ... nie pamiętałem szyfru. Dopiero jak się wyspałem siedząc pod drzwiami, rano szyfr mi się przypomniał 🤣
Pół minuty ---------------------------------- to wieczność ! żeby taki zamek otworzyć 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Ten zamek - jedynie nadaje się do ustępu < jakby ktoś sobie nie poradził ? to by się zes..... w spodnie
😂😂😂😂😂
Super jest pomysł z tymi śrubkami żeby zrobić zasuwę na szyfr Pozdrawiam serdecznie. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nice great 👍 Good use for garden door or backyard. So they won't be able to open it easily.
Excellent idea. Great build. 4 nuts should be minimum to increase the combination. 👍👍
Great job, but It is very easy to unlock the door by pulling the lock rod backwards and rotating each nut until it matches the slots, after each slot is matched the lock rod can be pulled and unlocked
It will keep the honest people honest.
Very cleverly designed, i like this video👌💪
This is clearly for decoration only. I love it.
Міне уста
So adorable
Luar biasa genius 👍👍👍
Best concept I've seen thumbs up! The only down side is the screw area needs more thought as its too easy to screw the lock off and avoid your combination. However great work and finishing.
Use torx security screws. This isn't exactly for a high crime area.
ROUND HEADED BOLTS THROUGH THE GATE FRAME
The round shaft must be longer. Practically its avoided screwing near wood edges(compromising door-lock strength) so that wood doesn't cracks up on regular use.
Не показал момент как сделал фаску внутри гайки. Иначе как шпинголет в закрытом состоянии, а гайки крутятся.
Лайк за наивность. Что мешает открутить несколько шурупов и замка нет😂👍
Да его и открыть можно за 10 секунд. Для этого достаточно вслепую вращать гайки по очереди и по одному шагу продвигать засов.
@@sashakl2125 будете все 900 вариантов прокручивать? Не устанете
@@user-ve6ef4qx4j крутишь первую гайку и одновременно давишь шпингалет вправо. Один оборот, "клац!" и шпингалет проскочил правее - первая гайка преодолена. Крутишь вторую гайку и снова постоянно давишь шпингалет вправо... И т.д. В том то и просчет конструкции,что её можно преодолевать пошагово, а не набрав сразу нужную комбинацию, чтобы открыть.
На случай если забыл код,всегда держи в кармане фигурную отвертку. Хотя русские её берут даже на курорт,мало ли,вдруг в номерах гостиниц светильники прикручены или мыльницы красивые.
Ну можно на болты посадить.Все равно фигня,легко подобрать...
I would place the mounting screws for the strike under the slide bolt to make them inaccessible when locked.
If it were to be used in a more secure location I would agree. This is obviously just a gate latch and NOT A HIGH security lock. So really it’s not that big of a deal, you could pick the lock faster than getting a screwdriver!!
@@krukabman Given... unless you happen to have Bosch impact driver with a screwdriver tip in it. 😉
@@krukabman ⚠️ God has said in the Quran: 🔵 { O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous - ( 2:21 ) 🔴 [He] who made for you the earth a bed [spread out] and the sky a ceiling and sent down from the sky, rain and brought forth thereby fruits as provision for you. So do not attribute to Allah equals while you know [that there is nothing similar to Him]. ( 2:22 ) 🔵 And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful. ( 2:23 ) 🔴 But if you do not - and you will never be able to - then fear the Fire, whose fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.( 2:24 ) 🔵 And give good tidings to those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, "This is what we were provided with before." And it is given to them in likeness. And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally. ( 2:25 ) ⚠️ Quran
Great job 💯
I think without an inner circumferential groove as well as the groove through the nut his bolt can only be locked in the open position!
Wow genius!!
I thought the same thing, don't know why I didn't show it 🙄🙄
I don't understand 😐
Fun project, good idea.
parabéns pelo trabalho super criativo e bem funcional, mas os parafusos que prendem a tranca na parede são fáceis de desparafusar. Deveria ser brindado a fixação na parede de madeira
Мой друг,какие шурупы?Если надо сломать есть кувалда или монтировка.5 секунд и этот креатив отлетит вместе с куском двери)))
Excelente...!!! Gracias...!!!
Very clever idea. Lock would be a breeze to pick though
Hey I didn't see how you cut the slot or what you did to make the rod with the three small rods cut off slide threw the drilled out nuts? Can you tell me were in the video and explain it to me. I think this would make make a fun lock on certain things.
A idéia é muito boa! Porém uma falha que pode ser resolvida. Mesmo trancado, poderia remover a tranca retirando os parafusos.
Cool lock, easy to open.
Wow! A solution to securing my garage! I’ll sleep better knowing my Ferrari is safe! Great video! 😀👍
I don’t know what to say but you are a genius
Cool idea and great craftmanship..
Buenísima idea!
a grand creation
Thank you for sharing useful video.
Great job bro 😮😮😮😮🙏blessings keep going
Good day I like how creative you are please tell me where did you buy the centre punch that you used
You could've made another feature by making the piston a few inches longer & then drilled a hole in it where you could place another padlock on that. This way not only is there more security, but if you've given the combination to someone you can still retain access control by still locking someone out.
Thanks! Appreciate all the suggestions.
Really great idea. I was amazed at how you did it !!
Very impressed with this. I'm going to make myself one
Thank you! Cheers!
Amazing talent.
im so enjoying to watch your creation amazing.
Шикарная идея! Осмелюсь предложить доработку - повернуть ригель с упорами на 180 градусов, чтобы не было видно упоров и ручку ригеля на сквозь и заварить! Отличное исполнение!
Чтобы его открыть понадобится не более 18 попыток. Видно или нет упоры, мало смысла столько возиться с созданием замка, который можно открыть за 36 секунд просто используя логику
Фальшканавки на всех цифрах были бы полезнее
@@magnifico11 не усложняйте :). Отвёрткой выкрутите шурупы из доски, или отсверлите головки шурупов.
@@user-pz4xw8lc6m так тянуть за ручку и крутить болты поочередно гораздо быстрее и выйдет)
Я тоже заметила этот дефект и уже давно , достаточно прижать ручку к болту а болт вращать и все упор сам найдет отверстие 5 сек. нужно на вскрытие!!!!! этот замок с самым низким уровнем защиты и интересно что в интернете много вшивых блогеров с таким замком те хвастаются что создали нечто , а на деле ничто , идиоты!!!!!! @@magnifico11
é muito criativo mais só daria pra usar na parte interna pois os parafusos podem ser retirados kkk seria melhor prender de outro jeito na porta
Pretty cool almost to nice to use love your style no gloves we r a dying breed
The only bad thing about it is that its day does not change
Dá muito trabalho!
Можно открыть и без пароля, достаточно иметь отвёртку
Самый дурацкий замок,который я видел😂, это щеколда с маленькой хитростью ,который откроет ребенок! Головоломка до 10лет. А вот просмотров в Ютубе !!! Это хорошее прибыльное видео,а замок херня🤣
так только, сможет русский.
Super cool but since the square tube is bigger than the bar stock, I'd hide the pins at 12 o'clock as it sits on the door so you can't see how it works. If someone gets to see it unlocked with the pins visible it makes it way easy to figure out if you pull or push the bolt and turn the nuts one at a time in order either way you have the combo. Still a neat project.
It's very good product to be used always and guaranteed even .
In this version you can find out the code within a minute. If you start to roll the fist nut, and you found the right number, you can push the bar forward a bit. You need to do the same with the remaining two nuts, and you have the combination.
Keeps the honest people out.
It only has ⅔ of a regular 3 digit lock but I don't think it's genuinely intended for security. If anything, its for nothing more than stopping infants opening a back gate, least for a short while 😅😅
@horvathgergely6263 come on man this video was done for entertainment only and he would know quite well that it is not secure.
Love the new wheel
Fantastic l need one to buy tnx
Cool idea! Good job
Ohhhhhh fantastic 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Cool and fun, but not very secure. Just remove the screws for access.
5
Yeah, but what if you build a tough one and weld the whole thing in a metal door.
@L M still all you have to do is try and open it until one nut drops in then the next and then it is open. Not real secure. But it is a fun project.
Not for the average homeowner
It's easy to crack even without removing screws, just tension it and turn first nut until it goes in 1 step, and repeat. You can even guess password by trying 1 nut at a time, so you only have 24 tries max
Great idea, the only bad idea is not protecting his hands from this flying metal debri. I will not get surprised if he gets blind by not protecting his eyes neither...Great video
Rất đẹp và chuyên nghiệp. Lời khen từ Việt nam.
What you done here is amazing but the lock plate needs to be bigger to take coach bolts 🔩 because all you have to do is take the screws out. Or ball bearings to weld or hammer in the top's of the screws for security. But like I said amazing job though 👏
Не могу понять как гайки проворачиваются на штифтах?
Замечательный замок, можно конечно просто открутить шурупы и посмеяться над его автором, да и подбирается код очень просто, а так замечательный 😂
@@karinanur7844Это не болт, а гайка. И замок этот на клозет ради прикола. Умник нашёлся 😂
very cool, but would be very easy to pick the combo.
Excellent invention, I congratulate you, but it is designed for children because if an adult does not know the combination, he will take a screwdriver and remove the screws, unless he puts screws with nuts and the nuts are on the other side of the wood, this is advice in case that project is to protect you from adults. By the way, I subscribed to your channel and left you a like.
Thanks for the like and for subscribing. Always good to get feedback.
A lot of the comments people talking about do this do that it’s not secure enough? It’s a simple gate latch!! A third grader could pick it in minuets. It’s a beet idea to lock a gate with slightly more security than just a latch. It’s a step up from the standard Amish latch. Good video I enjoyed it!
A combination that can never be changed
Just sand off the numbers and put on new ones
@@d00der41 you’d have to take it apart to stamp new numbers as he did it. Prior to this sand each side of each nut by at least 0.5mm. Hardly convenient or a two minute job.
Excellent work, but it will take maximum 24 trials (average 12 trials) to decode; as opposed to max 8x8x8=512 trials (average 256).
Exactly my point, you can move the bolt as you turn each nut to the right position :)
If you made nuts rotate around an inner ring that rotates with them when the lock is locked. But when you pull the lock back. Pin the inside rings with the bolt. Allowing only the outside rings to move when it's unlocked. You'd have the same lock, but you can change the combinations while it's unlocked. Like a suitcase lock. Also put the screws under the bolt, "while locked" so you can reach them when it's unlocked. And sink them in, with the bolt as flush as you can get it, so there is no access when it is locked.
Wow you must be a genius
Thanks Vidio shering 👍🏻 full support to you 👍🏻
The thief need only screwdriver. Nice work and idea. You have to hide the screw.
Thank you very much, my friend, for this interesting content. I wish you success, but I want a question What is the name of the black piece on which the numbers are printed? I mean her online business name
Очень легко подбирается по очереди код для открывания:) Дело 10 сек.
Yeah but... all it takes is to press the bolt against the first nut and twist the nut until you find the groove. The bolt will slide right in. Then repeat for the next two nuts and that's it.
All it takes is to remove 4 Phillips screws. Could've at least used tamper-proof Torx.
@@adamv242 yeah but even that requires a screwdriver. Feeling the groove is tool-free!
Depends on the tolerance. Wheel 2 might bind first or wheel 3, so still easy. If the tolerance is high this makes things harder. I'd still decode this in seconds with a shim tool either way.
Me and my hammer will have it open in a blink no worries chap
❤tnx
Amazing litle project. People are totally missing the point of this kind of lock. He doesnt want to protect hes jewels with this one. Its for woodshed or something like that and its really cool and simple desing.
Mas só funciona estando do lado de dentro, pois por fora ficaria exposto os números do segredo quando ABERTO ou não? Outro detalhe, poderia colocar os pinos do eixo do lado oposto, em baixo assim as ranhuras das porcas não ficariam expostas, aumentando mais a segurança, vou fazer um do jeito que falei acima.
very nice work, i think it would be very good as a replacement deadbolt inside a front door and maybe cut shapes in the grooves inside the nuts so even if they can feel when it is engaged or not it would be a blind puzzle
2 sugestions: 1. Use fastenerss. Tamper proof. 2. Add spring to hold the nut/number in place once its selected.
Super excellent
Do jeito que foi feito não funciona O sulco nas porcas permitem que as travas entem nelas quando estão alinhadas, porém como girar pra sair dos. Sulcos??? Do jeito que foi feito só dá pra traba funcionar com o trinco aberto alinhando as fissuras para a passagem do tarugo mas não tem como girar as porcas com as travas dentro. Pra isso é necessário um sulco de mês profundidade e espessura au longo da porca na parte interna da porca pra que ela possa girar com o pino dentro. Do contrário do jeito que foi feito só tem como trava os pinos com o trinco aberto e não fechado Isso de acordo com o que o vídeo mostra
Isso é claro, ele tentou esconder que fez um rasgo no interior da porca no perimetro de 360° pra gente não ver.. kkkkkkkkk
Ottima idea bravo
Wonderfull ❤
A lot of lock experts in the comments with 0 lock machining videos on their channel. It's amazing how these people got so much experience and expertise with no experience or expertise.
Alot of people can think ahead of a problem to come to a solution just by looking at something and any practicality minded person can see this lock can be picked within 10 seconds by applying pressure on the latch and turning the combination nuts until the peg fits in the slot
@@buddchan ok just because someone sees a flaw in something doesn't mean people care about it. Unless they ask for a collaboration to make the design better, you aren't improving the human race by puking up an opinion on the internet. Make one that's better.
@@truckstreestoys people have made good ones. I haven't got a clue how to make a lock . This isn't a lock tho. It's basically a puzzle.
The best creative ideas
Идея с замком супер. 👍но шурупы все портят. Только сквозное крепление. Ну я думаю это просто так для демонстрации замка шурупы. Иначе нет логики от такого замка. А вообще замок норм. 👍👍👍👍
Nice idea 💡☺️
I can access it with one hit with hammer and punch not secure fully BB ut nice work.
Es un buen proyecto, sólo debo decir que los tornillos de sujeción quedan expuestos, con un simple desentornillador pueden ser retirados.
It's a good bolt lock...but all to defeat it is a good drill and a large Phillips bit because the mounting screws are exposed...you would need special head screws or weld plates over the exposed screws.
Best punch those screw heads or counter drill out the 'X' too...Beautiful chunky lock
Muy bueno..!!!👍🇺🇾
Use carriage bolts instead of screws for security
HaHa! I was thinking the very same thing!!! Still,.... a very novel idea!!!! 😀
Trima kasi bg suda berbagi ilmu
Great video but the rock music in the background was a bit distracting. Some of us love just hearing machine noises without the extra unnecessary music.
And some of us like hearing rock noises. which will he accommodate, tune in next week. 🤦
Hopefully you'll make one where you can use key to lock it from the inside and outside. Sooner
I think the whole point of this build is views and it's doing a good job of it
Nice you should drill a hole for a pad lock too.
Wow Fantastic🤘😝🤘
