This was a question I was asked on the UK lockpicking forum on Facebook.
Hopefully it's easier to show rather than describe in words. It's definitely the way I learn anyway.
Thanks for watching.

Very well put, in an understandable way. I think this will help many people in the future.

Great information and presentation Richard! You could also do a video on how to count pins without a key. That would be helpful for us too. 😄

Looking at the key, I always thought the peak of each triangle is the number of pins. But you explained it is really the valley in each key that is a pin.
