Google (is this a verb now?) MIT guide to lockpicking.

Use the search button.

Read.

Practice.

Good Luck.

I would like to propose a short hand notation for the phrase "google this" perhaps something like Gt or G~T........... Then a reference to some thing can use that instead of footnotes to let people know that its something that they are urged to learn about and can be found with that search word. Those who would second that please pipe up.

Right.... newbies can't figure out what READ HERE BEFORE POSTING means. I'm sure they pick up on your shorthand in no time ray. :)

Biggar, unless you're planning on investing a lot of time into a new hobby (that's lockpicking), I'd just call a locksmith or force the cabinet open. For the price of a locksmith, forcing the cabinet is probably your best option.

I vote for G~T. Maybe starting a poll would be a good idea.

I think there's been a problem on the server, because I'm seeing multiple posts everywhere over the last 12 hours. I even have a double-post myself because I received no response after hitting "submit". I expect it is server load or something and that it will soon dissipate.

Yea, I had a double-post because of that but then on the second post it had a delete button beside the quote button so I just deleted it, and for a couple days the Pick-Fu section didn't display the last person to post. Now it seems to be working fine. Weird though.
