I'm 23, working for the Army at Fort Drum.
I've been interested in lockpicking/smithing for years. I've played around a little with making my own picks out of various items.
Tried to get a job with a locksmith before I enlisted but they all wanted 5 years of experience or so.

Hi there! I just signed up a couple of days ago, but this is an aesome sight! I'm not new to lockpicking, but I'm definately not an expert. There's really some great info here!

Hi Guy's
Been lurking around this site for a few months now.
Thought it was about time I registered and introduced myself.
My name is Chris, age 30, Alarm service engineer for ADT here in Sheffield.
Been picking locks on and off since i was a small boy. Not done much picking recently but Small son (8 years) has got the same bug and has started me off again.
Anyway, I'll stop rambling and get back to my picking.
Regards
Chris

Names Eddy 23 from Marlborough UK.
Into all gadgets and Technology. Am also an Oracle DBA so if you have any database problems give me a pm.
This ordered my first set of tools.
WooHoo
See you around

Hello, all. I am a 19 year-old college student who has learned to pick fairly recently (and is trying to improve her still-pretty-basic skills  ). I found this board a few days ago and decided it would be cool to join.

Hi, im new here and i would just like to say hi. I have decided to learn how to pick locks as i want to become a locksmith, why you ask, over the last month there has been about 20 things happen where knowledge in locks or locksmithing would have been really helpful. It also seems that this is a very handy skill to have throughout life. Paradox.
Is that a metaphor or a you just speaking crap.
who else is called Paradox? now my name had to be changed to Paradox_2004, now i feel lame.
