Where to go from here.

I've been picking locks for a while. I've gotten to where common 5 tumbler locks are little fun anymore. Although, its not technically lock picking I've also gotten pretty good using bypas tools to get into cars. I was thinking for the next step of either taking up tubular lockpicking, or getting one of those automotive lockpick kits and messing around with that. Any suggestions?

I hope they are your cars, or else you have expressed permission from the owners, cause that doesn't sound good.

Try 6 and 7 pin cylinders. I've got a son-of-a-bitch 7 pin restricted broach cylinder you can have a go at. Pick it and I will bow to your skill....

Definitely, the more knowledge and skills the better.

Thanks for the advice, and yes I've had permission to do everything I've done that deals with lock picking, including bypassing the cars.

Good to hear. *whispers* it's a deadly sin around these here parts.... picking locks you don't own....

Last couple weeks I've started on IC, Schlage Primus, and Medeco. I've got a bunch of Everest keys on the way to cut down for tension tools. I got the HPC dental set and the 2000 set in today. Simple 5 pin locks are only the beginning.

Oops, I meant I started on Schlage Everest, not Primus. Not that I haven't tried, but everytime I try to get one off Ebay I always get outbid. The only locksmith in an hour of here who can sell me one is too much of a jerk to me for me to be willing to pay retail to him. I'll get one in MO before I do that. /rant
