It's not necessary to post the same topic twice.
Those picks contain a variety of hooks. I'm sure that you will be able to find some Euro cylinders that they will fit. It all depends on how heavy the warding on the lock is.

I have those picks, yes you can use them on most common euro locks. They will struggle with tighter keyways such as asec, corbin, and some EVVA keyways but they're fine for the majority of locks. As for how to practice... get yourself some locks, learn how picking works and let rip. Let us know if you have any problems and we'll help, remember when asking questions to give as much detail as possible. :)

Read the tutorials and stickies on the forums. It'll answer most of your questions before they even come up. Especially DB's beginner's exercise.
