Anybody have any old picks I can have?

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.

Places like Lockpicks.com or Southord.com sells pick tools individually so you can save a lot of money by not having to buy tools you don't need in a kit. Not much more can be done to help you out I'm afraid. Most people hate freeloaders.
If a lock is a puzzle, then its key is the complete picture

NO NO NO don't do this. That is only for a party trick. There is a good chance of the paperclip breaking in your lock.

hi, my name is stupid, and im stupid.

lets all be mature here guys (lol. i know.....)

you wouldnt go onto a bicycle forum and ask if anyone had an old bike or two they didnt mind giving away, so dont expect that here. especially if you arent an established member of the forum. stick around, learn up, make valuable posts and enjoy the community, and eventually you will get to know some of us, at which point you can ask, or maybe you will be offered free, or discounted quality tools.

but usually by that time, you have your own set of homemades, or a nice purchased set, and the gift is usually a nice trophy set of tools.

its really not that hard to get or make picks. search up, there are more than enough threads on it, heck, theres an entire forum dedicated to making picks.

even if some one was willing to give you some picks. don't you think a location might be helpful?

anyway. get you self a cheap set or just buy a couple of tension tools, a short and long hook, a half diamond and a couple of rakes from southord.
