Yeah. Sawzall or dewalt saw with a carbide blade will go through a kryptonite ubar bike lock in front of a classroom full of undergrads and 2 campus police officers in about 20 seconds. The spark show is great and if you look official no one will ask you questions! ryan -- D. Ryan Spott | I

I got an angle grinder for like fifteen bucks if I recall at Harbor Freight. I hardly ever need it but when I do it makes quick work out of the lock. If I don't have power nearby I take my generator. On Fri, Jan 9, 2015 at 8:53 AM, Josh Luthman wrote: > Cutoff wheel is definitely all I need. >

cutoff wheels are thinnernot sure what the disk itself is made of, but they'll be coated in silicon carbide or similar industrial abrasive. A grinding wheel is probably a stone. You could do a lot of damage with either one. Maybe cutoff wheel is a better word. We used an air whiz wheel

You wouldn't want the dremel sized ones for a padlock anywaythey'd get too hot and shatter before you finished. Maybe the 4" ones for an angle grinder. You can put angle grinder disks into a drill if you put a bolt through the hole in the middle and tighten a nut on it. Then you ch
