Let me introduce you to that wonderful tool we call the file:

Apart from that you might want to search for a lot of posts dealing with how to make your own improved tension wrenches. And you could fill out your bloody location so we can spoon-feed you better, regional cooking and so on.
It's not the tools that open the lock. It's me.

window wiper blade

if you get yourself an old window wiper blade there will be a stainless sleel spine running inside the rubber these are perfect for our locks. and you'll get about 3 out of 1 spine. not bad ah :lol:
learning to be a locksmith is like an oblique curve it will never come full circle!!!
