fusor.us — I have had to throw out several locks because I have lost the combination. I recently found a lock and I really hate to throw these things out, and I'm sure you do to (since you're reading this). I have read many places online that this is completely impossible, but it's not. It takes a little math, a lot of brute forcing, and some thinking.

When I lost my combo years ago, I just went to my local hardware store, gave them the number off the lock, and within a week, Master had sent them the combo.

That doesn't really help when you have been padlocked to an immobile object now does it.

I had been in the same situation. I looked on the previous digg posts and that excel spreadsheet was useful. And luckily, it worked on my sixth try.

Actually most schools in the U.S. use master locks that can be opened with this method or with padlock shims which can be bought or made from a beer can as shown by bioret above.
