This is the I T L 2000 automatic safe dialer.

These machines cost thousands of dollars.

So a special thanks to Michael, it's Barrows lock picks for lending it out.

To me, the setup is fairly simple.

We have a magnetic base to hold the dialer to the safe door, a chuck to hold onto the dial, a fairly large stepper motor to do the dialling.

And, of course, the brains of the operation are in the control box.

This is actually an older model.

I believe the newer ones operate off a Bluetooth tablet.

Setup is simple.

A skilled person could assemble this Tyler, attach it to the safe door and aligned the innards of the lock with the dialer in somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 minutes.

I've already skipped the boring part, so I'm just going to hit the dial button and let you see this in operation for a few minutes.

Okay, what?

Okay, let's pause that for a moment.

Fortunately for all of us, these machines are not nearly as fast as the movies would lead us to believe.

Depending on various factors, it could take a long as 30 hours, though I'm told the average time is closer to eight hours.

Since I'm not going to make an eight hour video, we're going to cheat a little bit.

I'm going to let the dialer know the 1st 2 numbers of the combination and let it figure out the third.

That way, you get to see an open.

That first number is 63.

The second number is 19.

Now I'm going to hit the dial button and let the machine figure out the third.

Okay, if that clunk wasn't enough of a clue, the machine is telling us dialling complete.

Let's check to make sure this actually opens.

And indeed it does.

If I push the combo button, the machine will tell me the combination is 63 1957 now because I don't discuss safe manipulation much, I should note that someone skilled at manipulation could open a lock like this in a fraction of the time of this Tyler.

It's a skill that requires some time to master.

And when I was first learning, I was cutting my teeth on high end SNG locks like this one in here, and that made for some frustration.

But it turns out that sparrows recently came out with a manipulation learning Kitt.

It comes with a fairly standard safe lock, and on the inside we have three extra lever arms that allow you to make it progressively harder.

In addition, this tool allows you to change the combination after every time you manipulate.

They just sent this over to me, so I haven't had a whole lot of time to play with it.

But I definitely think it's something I would have appreciated back when I was learning.

I may show it again in the future after I've spent some time with it, but that's all I have for you today.
