Walk me through picking a basic pin-tumbler lock.
target response
Pin-tumbler picking works by setting each pin at the shear line. You'll need a tension wrench and a hook pick: apply light rotational tension to the plug, then lift each binding pin until it sets. Work pin to pin — when the last one sets, the plug turns.
