I use large text so that I can read and edit easily before submiting my post. I forgot to change the text back before submitting.
I hope I didn't ruin your day.

Nah he's always like that.
Psst...lean a little closer...*whispers* "he's actually related to Oscar from Sesame Street."

 If it ain't broke.....pull it down and see how it works anyway!

Hey everyone, I've just started to get into lock picking rescently and am glad I stumbled upon this site. I'll try not to both you guys with alot of stupid questions, and will be sure to use the search feature before I post anything =) I've been interested in security for as long as I can remember, before it was primarily network security, but I'm now finding the concept and practice of lock picking to be of great interest.

Yah, but now he's driving it. $55.00 at tubs 'r us, but with the rims, paint, chrome & lowriders, it's worth $55,000.

Hello all
I'm new to internet locksmithing. This looks like a great site. Are there any other good ones out there?

Hi to all.
I've been using this site for tips for a couple of weeks and greatly appreciate the information available to non-professional lockies.
A little about myself, I'm a soldier so have a never ending supply of lockers and padlocks to practice on belonging to friends (always with permission) I've got a slimline southord pickset which seems good however could do with more ergonomic handles! i also have a snap gun and some bump keys purchased from e-bay (before they noticed I guess)
I'm pretty effecient at alot of padlocks although my recently purchased level 4 Yale brass padlock is just laughing at my picks! This is also surprisingly the first (and only) lock I've opened using a bump key. This reinforces what i've read about them working best on better quality locks regardless of the security pins.
thanx again, great job by all.
