Practicing is that's the best way to get better.

Once you have bumped a lock you have bumped them all and there is no more challenge. You'll get more satisfaction out of picking a lock because you are putting your skills up against the locks designer.

BTW: Good on you for defending yourself.

Btw, it was a mailbox key, but i wasnt gonna really go bump it or even really file the key...

I was just looking at it and trying to figure it out, it was sitting on my desk afterall...too lazy to dig my keys outta my pocket and take pics of them, anyway thhey are easier to understand, this key was confusing...

my mailbox is in the middle of the street and I wouldnt want to draw attention to myself, especially after the recent death of habeas corpus im not trying to get the feds to notice me trying to pop a mailbox, thank you very much...
