Once the pick is set to the lock cylinder, it is straightforward to
measure the depths. SOME duplicators can copy from the pick tool, but
some will knock sliders out of place.

So, that gives a possible combinations of 8 to the 7th power, I think.
These depths correspond (with an offset) to the lengths of the tumblers
(pins) in the lock.
So, if you know wha

There are 8 possible depths, as Ethan listed.
The lock has seven pins, with the depth indexes Ethan listed.
Conventional pin numbering is to look into the lock, number from 1 CW

Or, if you prefer, I can dig through some old posts on this list, and tell
you the depths of the cuts for XX2247. It has been widely discussed a few
years back.

Are you sure that it's not an "XX2247"?
