What area are you in?

You might want to consider starting your own topic instead of hijacking an existing one that has nothing to do with your situation.


Well sorry but I have no idea how the hell to start my own topic.

Could anyone help me with how to pick this type of lock? The picture I took was too big so here's a pic of the type of lock: http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&safe ... 1,s:0,i:75


Sorry friend but you're not likely to get any help here. This is a forum for hobby lockpickers, not to provide people information on how to "open x lock" or "crack x safe". Especially since you're trying to get into a cash box. How do we know you didn't come by that cash box in a less-than-legal manner? We can't. Good luck to you but folks who can't even take the time to READ about how the forum works don't really fall into the category of people we are likely to help.

Cheers
Its all about the feeling in that instant when you realize... The plug turned!!
