You can find a few reviews up in the first mssg board. Heres one that comes to mind, there are more though.

Im going to take the www.locksmithbiz.com lockout course over this winter, so i'll let you know how it works out.

www.lockpicks.com has a course, as does foley-belsaw - which is a popular one. Good luck, and if you take a course be sure to post a review.

Hi Don, welcome to the forums. As a welcoming present I'd like to present you with a whole bag of full stops...........................................
Use them as you see fit. :wink:
As for your question, this thread should be able to help you:
viewtopic.php?t=4837
But I'm sure you can find quite a lot more through the use of our lovely search engine. The general consensus concerning training in the UK seems to be to think pink (and ken).
It's not the tools that open the lock. It's me.

tree felling

Postby kendale » 30 Nov 2004 20:01

I dont just have 8mm bits you know i have some serious drills 32mm works well but is heavy on the batteries, the 20mm are great if you just have a 3 lever or cheap lock you want to open, the diamond core are ok but expensive, its swings and roundabouts really the 2mm are easy to use though but the hardplate 1s are easy to break, I do have however from ebay a tiny camera £20 with 4 leds that is great in virtually darkness, add this to my portable tv ie any texaco petrol stn £14.99 and I have one hell of a letterbox kit, the picture is absolutely fantastic the only draw back is the 10 r11 batteries the tv takes. but does save me drilling those high security bird cylinders.

You'd probably fare way better at picking those birdies if you enjoyed more women and less vodka. :wink:

I could have sworn there was more to this thread when I was reading it earlier. Maby someone enjoyed far too much vodka for one day?

No, I know there was alot more to this thread. A few other threads no longer seem to have a "flow" (Ie, skipping right to Mazola and other lp101 cliches)

But seriously, has somebody been hacking the site?

Was it considered that TonyXXXX might have been innocent, and that the real hacker stole his ID or hacked his computer as a cover for his activities? (And the same hacker may still be at large?)
