Ha! I was looking at them, but decided to try for the Medeco cylinders instead. I wonder how many ebay auctions are fought among our members. Sometimes I wonder if we shouldn't team up on those lots of like 100 padlocks and let everyone have one for a dollar. I really don't need 100 locks that are keyed the same!

I hope you enjoy my, eh.. , I mean your locks! :D

Dag, nice!

I just got my hands on a bunch of random, normal locks, but considering I have plans to frankenstein most of them, I'm happy with the buy :)

yah, I'd be down with that.

When I get my Dutch vacation in the very near future here, I plan to do some planning, I'd happily hit you up some of my ideas upon my return.

As is, I've been wanting to do the most recent one for weeks, and it only took about 2 hours, total, but with work (I'm quitting my job so I have a LOT to get done before I leave) and a very understated personal life, I've had no time for most of it :\

Good to hear that so many members are planning a Dutch vacation. :lol:
Welcome to my homeland, where the legal drinking age is 18, prostitutes have taxes and are legal, softdrugs are legal.
And basically, where most tourists lose their mind.
Take a look around in Amsterdams famous red light district, and uhm.
Go window shopping. :P

Yours,

Jordy


PS: no really, can't wait.

total score there! I've been trying to get my hands on a abloy for awhile now.
If you can't make it work try yelling "aww d*****t!" and throwing your tools it never worked for my pops but it entertained me :)
