Also, read rules, introduce yourself, read more, find answer to question in previous posts without even posting question. It's like magic without the smoke, mirrors and beautiful assistant.

Hey, welcome to the site and such. Everyone gets this lecture so it is not directed at you necessarily...

first off always follow these simple rules:

1) Search before you ask, this makes life better for everyone because there are less repeat threads and we're not answering the same "what is a bump key" type questions over and over.

2) DON'T PICK LOCKS YOU RELY ON!!! This means if the lock is attached to a door, cabinet, vehicle, chastity belt, casket, whatever... unless it is there for the SOLE PURPOSE of being picked, DO NOT PRACTICE WITH THAT LOCK. You CAN and WILL break it... and then your in trouble.

3) DONT PICK LOCKS YOU DONT OWN!!! The only thing worse then breaking the lock attached to your sister's chastity belt is breaking a lock you don't own. Unless you are a locksmith or have EXPLICIT permission to pick a lock, with the owner understanding the lock may be damaged, DO NOT PICK IT.

That being said check out these places for helpful information on getting started.

The MIT Guide to lock picking can be found:

HERE

the LSI Guide to lock Picking can be found:

and check out EVERY link found on this page, they are all great:

Remember: Anything can be made "Foolproof", but nothing can be made "Damnfool Proof".
if i post it here, it STAYS here unless you have explicit permission from myself or the admins of this site.

It's a 140 type. 4-pin, security pins, sloppy. Just stick a rake in and slop it around semi-wildly. I found this works best on these type of cheap locks.

I got that lock a while ago and i can seriously pick it in <5 seconds constantly :lol: . Just try it with light tension first, and after you have it down a couple times, start applying harder tension.
