Hey im new and need lots of help

[Jorvis]

Hey guys, i am gonna start lockpicking soon. I have always had an interest in it, and have always wanted to start. I am wondering where to start. I dont have any tools, and no practice locks. Where can i get cheap lockpick tools, and some good 100% beginner locks? i am a college student so i dont have ample cash to spend. Also, are there any sites online that can run me through a simple beginning picking of a lock? like a site that will run me step by step so i can sit in front of my computer and try to pick a simple lock? i appreciate any help guys, thanks

A plate's fine. It's the spoon that you gotta worry about.
