[aviator151]

Hello, I just bought a set of Southord rakes/picks and have practice picking some locks for a hobby. I currently have a problem that I posted about a stuck deadbolt.

[TheNewbie19]

hey, im new, to both this site, which is awesome, and to lock picking.

hi.

[mikash52]

I aswell am new to the site(found it from howstuffworks.com). ive been interested in lock picking for about 1 year but havent really got into it untill quite recently. and just as everyone has said this site is very well done and i am happy to have found it.

hello everybody, i've been reading the site for a while, it's full of great stuff. i got into locks through escapology, and out of escapology through locks. i love to think outside the box, and make tools to do jobs. ps i'm sick of the bad press for paperclips, i could find you hundreds of locks in a city that will open with just one clip, but like all tools they have their limits and you must use them correctly. ps they're handy for holding my payment cheques to my payslips.

Hello everyone at LP101. I've been picking for awhile but I would still call myself a begginer or "noob" as I'm still slowly progressing and getting better but practice makes perfect right. I'm looking foward to learning new things here and putting them to good use in my lockpicking skills. Right now I'm picking with some homemade picks made from a hacksaw blade "curtousy of Pyro's video" and soon hope to purchase some new picks from lockpickshop.com. Just wanted to say hello and nice to meet you all.

Hello everyone, im not sure wether there are many aussys on the site but since i was about 5 I have been picking locks with my dad who owns a locksmithing business.

So anyways Im 19 and I live in South australia and have been picking for a few years, although im still not very good I know a fair bit about the feild...

And im still as girly as a girl can be so watchout...

Greetings to all and welcome to the site.

Flo: No your not the only girl on the site. I know of at least a half dozen more.

Well that makes my thread in Gen Chat obsolete!

[BrownDwarf]

Brown Dwarf here. I've been picking locks off and on for six or seven years. Mostly padlocks, with some trigger locks (discouragingly easy) and door locks.

Although I use profile picks and the standard South Ord and Majestic picks, my favourite remains the South Ord slim-line set.

stay away from those black holes, watch out for the event horizon, browny

Hey everyone

Another newbie here. Just ordered a set off Lockpickshop.com, hopefully'll get them in a week or two.

Just wanted to say hi.

[knocker148]

HELLO ALL

My name is Knocker and i am a newbie. Working on the close protection circuit at the moment but am looking to do a locksmith course as soon as practically possible. Can anybody recommend a good one that will teach me from scratch up to a decent level. I want to know everything!!! Looking to do auto locks too with mblocks in the not to distant future. Anyway i've waffled on too long.
Hope to get some response.
Cheers
Knocks
