You could just offer to keep a spare key in your house for her, that way if she locks herself out, then she can borrow it from you. But don't let that put you off learning for fun.

Just be careful not to bend those slim ones, nothing sucks more then bending your best halfdiamond. Or for some, having your friend bend your favorite rake. And it wasn't even a slimline!

Hope you stay with this forum, it has tons of knowledge. Being able to ask someone a question is a lot faster then trying to find that one diagram that has the answer you're looking for. (although "search first" is heavily pushed on this site)

I'd say it's allmost for both.
It's nice to keep things readable.
