Let the games begin

Information about locks themselves. Questions, tips and lock diagram information should be posted here.

Let the games begin

At last, I found a source of locks. Now lets see how many I can open with my rudimentary skills and tools.

:shock:

Nice haul! Have fun. Can see one key in the upper left part of the picture with a high-low-high-low type bitting. That one will likely be tougher. :)

Nice score! That should keep you occupied for a little while. :)

I've managed to open three of the first 11 I've tested. Other than a bad Chinese padlock, these are the first three non cut-out locks I've opened.

The feeling when they click open is so ridiculously good I feel silly.
