Hi everyone. Ive lurked over this forum for a=some time and I've taken up lock picking as a hobby. I bought some Picks from southord and am now making some of my own just for shits and giggles. Im not very skilled at picking yet but once I find/buy some locks that are a bit easier than the ones around my neighborhood that people let me try I hope to make progress. Anywho just saying hello world.
It's funny until someone gets hurt..........Then it's hilarious.

 Tell you what, focus on learning to pick, and eventually, a sig block will come your way - I'm expecting mine any day now....

Hey. i'm new, i've picked one lock so far. My brother is refanius. I picked his masterlock 140 with the homebrew tools he has (read: pen clip for torque, paperclips for picks.) It was pretty fun. I'm going to go get a few locks to start practicing on now.

No one is as cool as Varjeal. If you think you'll ever be as cool as Varj, you're still living in the 80's.  *cough* 80's *cough cough* pun on username *cough* 
Some things may be pick proof, but everything can be bypassed....

If you give santos 5 chickens and a goat.  Plus you have to have 40+posts (too few santos) you might be lucky enough to get a cool sig for yourself.

Santos recently contracted salmonella from some dirty goats that Triman sent him, he's changed his fee. It's now 3 camels and a packet of dishwashing gloves. The soft kind.

Santos, I'm so sorry... I told that butcher to take that piece with the purpleish tinting to the back and get me another piece, but I guess he didn't do it. I'll have a long talk with the manager tomorrow...
Anyway, welcome everyone to this great site of awesomeness and learning of good stuff.
please
