Save yourself some cash, and avoid the locksmith CD. If you can learn from text and illustration, just stay reading here.

My interest in the CD is the visual aspect.

I have read the MIT guide and I have a couple of books on the subject, but I feel actually seeing how a professional does it would be worth the cost.

Thanks for the info, though. Nice to see an obviously active forum!

im not new but i never introduced myself. I have been on this site for a good 7 months, mostly lurking.

Im 15 years old, 5 foot 7 inches, got into lockpicking because I love a challenge, and the idea i can trick the common mindless sheep that live in the USA(really stupid people).

I like lockpicking,soccer,tennis,pingpong, and i hate school.what else?????..........I think thats it

Hey everyone

First off i love the site it is awesome.

My name is zeke but my friends call me geek

my curiosity used to be ownly involved computers but when i came across this site i loved the idea of learning to pick locks and learning how locks acctually work.

I am 14 and live in australia (which in the place i live have NO resources about lock picking, i gone to local bookshops but they dont have any books in australia about lockpicking) so my ownly way to get my hands on one is if i got it of the net.but i cant get it of the net because mum wont let me use her credit card

but anyways this site rule's keep up the good work!

Welcome everyone.

From the last few intros, it would be good to share an old adage:

"There is more than one way to do it"/perl ...... yes yes Perl

Anyway, there are free video resources, the makings for at least a few hundred page book on picking and locks, and tons of friendly people here. Take some time to poke around, an especially good place to start is our FAQ thread

Hello everyone. I was browsing around the net looking for information on more advanced lock picking techniques adn I came across this site. The forum looks like it is quite active and might provide some good information, so I registered. I'm not a professional lock smith or anything--it's just a hobby--but I've been doing it for several years, and I've gotten pretty decent. I can pick most padlocks in just a few seconds, and cars in a few minutes. I'm interested in learning more about rare locks and electronic locks, as well as how to bypass them, as well as all aspects of physical security (alarm systems, biometics, etc).

I'm also into computer security; I run the forums over at itfreaks.com (formerly hackers.com). Anyone who wants to complement their physical security knowledge with computer security, feel free to stop on by. Anyway, I assume you have to make a few posts before the mods let you into the advanced sections, so I guess I'll start posting! See you on the boards....

Hi,

I am from asia and totally new to this lockpicking. I was looking for the suitable lockpick set for this newly picked up hobby and one of the webpage linked here and I found it quite interesting. So I joined. Now still reading the threads as much as I can. Hope to be able to contribute the forum soon.

by **another aussie** » 2 Jan 2005 1:09

My name is James and I'm new to both the hobby and the site but both seem like great fun.
My hobbies are making fishing lures and then testing em out

I am happiest when I have a fishing rod in one hand and a beer in the other but normally either one of the two will do a pretty good job

by **_Ethereal_** » 2 Jan 2005 1:15

Hi another aussie.

There is nothing like fishing while picking and drinking beer. :wink:

Good luck with all your hobby's

and welcome

Hi, I just joined today. I'm currently in the Army and due to leave at the end of this year. I'm looking to re-trade as a locksmith prior to ex-patriating to Spain and would welcome any advise on how to re-train and set up buisness.
