Welcome everybody,
For all thoes new to the site and lockpicking, LP101 is a great place to start.
Take a look at the new users section, first and don't be afraid to ask any questions just remember to try a search before posting. Cause everyone should HYSF as well as there Pick-fu.

If you're looking for locks to pick, buy some but, DO NOT PICK LOCKS YOU OR ANYONE ELSE RELY ON
I repeat DO NOT PICK LOCKS YOU OR ANYONE ELSE RELY ON, they can and will break, then your house/car/safe/chasity belt is vulnerable or unable to be opened (think: emergency situation).
Keep it legal.
Cheers,
UWSDWF

My introduction

Postby pmanchego » 9 Jan 2007 20:19

Hello everyone,

I have been around for a while now, and didn't dear to introduce myself :)
I live in Holland, went once to TOOOL which I really enjoyed and I would go there more if it wasn't that far away.

I have been practicing for some time, lock picking is for me a sort of meditation.

I am glad this forum exists.

See you around

Hey im new, this place looks great

Postby baseeight » 13 Jan 2007 22:40

Hey, im new here, this seems like a great place for information. I just got my lokpicks today, a 14 piece kit that was reccomended as a good starter set here. My next step will be to go to the university surplus store and see if i can get a few locks to start with. Thanks for all your help in advance, my complements on an exelent forum.

New Hobby

Postby Axxis » 15 Jan 2007 16:00

I'm new to lock picking myself. I have been pretty interested in lock picking for a long time, I always saw it as a practical means of a time consuming hobby. I don't have anyone I know that picks locks so I don't really know where the desire to lockpick comes from. I may or may not get into it seriously but this website and forums are put together quite well so it seems like a good place to start. Nice meeting everyone.
An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest.
