you would need a hydraulic cutter

Yea I wasnt positive if that was the right one. Those jaws dont look to sharp, but wasnt sure so I just picked it... The main reason was just because its big as hell.

Looks like mike beat me there though. lol

Tried that fist, got me nowhere fast. I guess I got a quality pin.

I've had 4 of those to take off for people who lost their keys.
A 24 oz ballpeen hammer and a long , sharp cold chisel taken to the lock itself ,about 5-6 good swings , they pop right apart.
Hit it from the front , not the side.

-26 celcius right now, so no, that is not going to happen just yet.

Sounds like the best option to try so far, although the binford looks mean.
