Hi there,

This is Elijah on a noob run - Please read the sticky posts and SEARCH the website a little bit before you ask a question that has been answered hundreds of times. We're sick of recommending beginners locks! Well, I can't speak for the whole community, but I'm sure sick of reading these posts. Anyway, go ahead and search and let us know how you've done with the locks you found.

viewtopic.php?t=7099 - Here are some locks ordered from least to most difficult, some are US specific, however.

viewtopic.php?t=1543 - List of locks to practice on in the UK.

Sorry I couldn't find more right now bud, I just crawled through the 5 pages of "Euro Locks," and this was all I came up with. I'm sure if you scanned through the more general "Locks" threads you would come up with more, but some of them would be more US specific. Good luck!
