I guess I'll try 8 and 9 but I'm wondering if I read the stopping points as the wrong numbers.

All the .5s end in the same number except for one, which, using the method described above for the .5s instead of the whole numbers would give me a last number of 1.5. That doesn't work with the math unless I treat it as either a two or a one, and that leaves me with twice as many combinations to try. Any other options?

I have a master lock from high school sitting around in a toolbox for 25 year. I mixed some of the number up the first time, but got it straight the second time and found the last number was '8' ... printed out the list of possible combinations ... picked a column that looked right and bingo! opened up on the very first try. Amazing. Thanks! Wow … it really works. I have a master lock from high school sitting around in a toolbox for 25 year.

So I had four 9's and 2 6's. I picked one of the two 6's and started there. Sure enough, it was the correct final number and I got the lock open. I guess if I had tried all 64 I would have then tried the other 6 as the final number. So, FYI for others who have this problem. Try both of the two "unique" ending numbers. OK.

Masterlock's web site wants you to fill out a form, photocopy your lock, get the form Notarized, and mail it in for a 4-6 week turnaround. I've had this lock for years and finally lost the little code sticker that came with it. I had a vague memory of the code, and that the first and third numbers were similar. I ran through the dial twice to get the list of possible numbers, found the most likely last number (I ended up with 4 and relied on my memory), and got it open on the first try. THANK YOU!!! Now, do I bother using this for the lockerroom because it was so easy to crack? ...yea... My clothes aren't that valuable! woo hoo! Awesome!
