When it comes down to it there is nothing better than manual tools for your Lock pick Set, whether they be retail, homebrew, macgyver style. DIY'ers look here.

Was I able to open a cruciform lock with nothing more then 5 paperclips, pliars, and an allen wrench?

hahah my next feat will be a medeco biaxial with out the sidebar probably 3 or 4 pins using either a safety pin or paperclips. Maybe even solder. lead free of course. That should be a fun go. But i am really thinking about 5 pin tumblers with nothing more then just a pencil. I think that is what i will go for. Opening a 5 pin tumbler with a pencil.

So if I get this right, this is "did I or didn't I..." ?

I was at the drive in, long weekend, someone inserted the ignition key into the trunk lock, and turned. It was the wrong key and when they kept on turning they wrecked the key. 180 degrees toasted.

So I having only able to find a sharp knife, a plastic spoon and used popsicle stick (off the ground), I made a key for my GM ignition (during intermission) from the popsicle stick (since the plaistic spoon from concessions wouldn't shape well), and drove the family home at the end of the evening.

The stick broke when I put the car into park as it was still sticking out of the ignition when we arrived home, so nothing left to display.
