Another first pick

Postby ispygaz » 23 Aug 2015 19:43

Hi all
Success at last it's only taken me 11 years. I bought a couple of cheap padlocks but still can't open them. As a last resort I had a look at the lock that I had taken out of my conservatory door. It's a five lever euro lock and I managed to spp it twice in half an hour.
What with ordering a practice lock from MrWizard things are looking promising

Congrats. They say slow and steady wins the race. So I guess nobody wins more than you. :D Glad you made it.

Congratulations.
MrWizard's practice lock is a good one. You won't be disappointed. I got one not long ago and it's been a real nice rewarding challenge working with its keyway.
