This video is to help you identify spool pins while single pin picking. Spool pins provide counter rotation that you can feel with your tension wrench.

Try to keep a close eye on the tension wrench and the angle it is reading on the protractor. As I set spool pins you can see the counter rotation.

Being able to identify security pins by feel is a skill that takes time to develop but it is a great asset to have.
