I am very new to this site and it looks as though it is going to be VERY helpfulln in my job as site manager for a large comprehensive school. The teaching staff are allways missplacing keys (they don't loose them), or the pupils are stealing them so adding new lockpicking/replacing skills will be very helpfull

Hi, I introduce myself to everybody.

bucker2000, I'm the pupil you hate.

(Of course, in an humoristic tone). :wink:

im a locksmith on the MS Gulf Coast on my off days from Fire Dept. Looks like a very nice site, wish i had known about this along time ago.

good evening,
After looking these pages, i have been reading alot of topics, and
just started to check the MIT guide.
Im a newcomer, and have been picking just a short while.
Well i have managed to open um.. 4 padlocks (cheap finnish ones) whit pins,
and couple of bicycle locks, no lewer locks, tubular nor abloys:D
I bought yesterday an abus padlock and im fighting with it now, gently ofcourse.
Its abus, inex 40 or smthng like that. The keyway is tricky
compared to the other padlocks i have and the tension wrench isnÂ´t as
easy to set as in others, it tends to slip to wrong position,
and im not stil sure how should i enter the pics in it, a litle bit sideways I think...
Yeah, i made my picks my self,
im going to post some fotos when i get a camera in my hands,
sewer rod is cool, but the streetwiper sets are easyer to work with files
as they are much thinner..

hey if anyone(I think that the most of you) have experience on abus
padlocks it would be nice to read some basics about picking it, although im going to search the topics the next time i have time to this.

I was a little surprised to see that they wont sell me a keyblank for Abloy,
gues i got to change my crappy clothes and look like a honest citicen or something...

Hi,
I'm brand new to lock picking. I needed a new hobby so I decided to go for picking locks. I came across this site and I found that it was a great help. I can't wait to start picking!

Hi everyone. I have been looking through this site for a couple of weeks now, and i have to say it is AMAZING!

Registered today and just thought i'd post and say hi. Willl probably sit on the sideline, looking and learning for a while. Keep up the good work everyone! :wink:

DesH, welcome to LP101.

About your sig, all T.Eddison had to do was find only one way to make it work.

Not a correction, I just remembered that from the movie National Treasure.

Welcome to the site everyone,

Get aquianted with the search button and read all the stickies on site,

Lokka, abus/abbloy picking is for the advanced sections and not the public sections, hang around and you may find some old threads that mention it or simply bid your time, contribute well and get access tot he advanced sections to learn more on those locks.

by **DesH** » 8 Jul 2006 21:44

Thanx Kaotic.

About my sig. I trawled through a "famous quote" website, and found one that very closely resembled my lockpicking techniques before i found lp101 :oops:
