Amen.

Try reading "Guide to lockpicking" by Ted the Tool, that should give you all the information you require.

Read the MIT guide
Then go and buy some stainless steel and a grindwheel (I tried and picks don't work very well on hacksaw blade, maybe a week per pick, and not at all on stainless steel, so use a grindwheel)

An easyer idea is to just buy them at southord. It's where I get mine. They do global shipping, though it costs more.
I can pick open your front door faster than you can use a key
