I just opened my first lock :D

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.

I just opened my first lock :D

It's funny, when you "learn" a lock you can open that specific one forever, it's like riding a bike. Now you'll have to get in to re-pinning.

sorry about that... my tricircle is a 265 it turns out :)

I was worried that someone found this lock easy when it gives me trouble...

my ego has recovered now :P
