Hey guys,
Im new to this site, and im am new to any type of lock picking.
I currently am in college, and studying up to go into some type of law enforcement, Federal or local.
I came here to hopefully get some helpful advise on how to start up this hobbie.

Ive been looking at this site for a while, it's fun stuff and good too know. I cracked my first tumbler lock a couple weeks ago, its a real good feeling. Going out today to get me a more challanging lock, something I can learn off. Just wanna say hi to everyone and thanks for letting me join.

Just joined today as I finally got my own set of lockpicks. Been looking through the site for a while though and I just have to say how impressed I've been with everything I've learned in such a short time.
