Hi,
I'm new to the site and to lockpicking - hope to make a new career, looking for some training right now to make me competant.
Have sent some emails to the people recommended on this site - couldn't get into Pinky's site - guess its oversubscribed right now
I'm here to stand up for all the lady locksmith's out there - lets keep these guys on their toes....
Right I'm off to trawl the info on the site,
thanks

Some things may be pick proof, but everything can be bypassed....

Howdy,
Just thought i would say to everyone as I am a new member.
As well as ask where should an australian buy his lock picks from. If it helps i have read the MIT guide, a few other guides, made very dodgy lock picks and opened a few locks (lots of luck).
And before everyone just says "look at this Sticky: FAQ: So where do I buy lockpicks and what do I need to buy?" I was wondering what the customs office in Australia would say as well as extra taxes, but more importantly if there were any well known and reliable australian stores.
Thanks In Advance,
CalicoDreams

Hi everyone,
just introducing myself, been lurking on the boards for a week or two reading old posts and learning. I used to be able to pick most of the 4 pin padlocks I had when I was younger, and promptly forgot how when I discovered girls.. =)
anyways, cleaning up, I found my old pickset, and decided to give it a try. broke my only hook on the first try =(
Anyways, im adicted again, so ill probably asking all the newbie questions.. well, on the plus side, i do know how to use the search button

Welcome CalicoDreams,
Another member here from Sydney is Fah-Cue - he recently purchased a pick set from overseas and had no problem (that I'm aware of) with customs.
There is a link to an online store at the header of the website and they even offer a discount to LP101 members.
Happy picking....

Hey
Just wanted to introduce myself and say hey.  You guys have a great site, and you all seem really helpful.  I'm just starting out, but I think lockpickings tons of fun.
