i'm guessing i'm not a noob anymore when i say search and read the faqs.

When you start out its hard, i'm still trying to get all the pins in my deadbolt.
I dont know anything about tri-circle padlocks but what google brought up it seems that they are euro? You probably already have slim picks but if not this might be a problem.

What really helps is getting a deadbolt, or any lock, you can dissasemble and practice with only a few pins in it.
