Lock Me Update: The first round of locks are going out today. Hopefully if you are in this batch you got a message from me. I'll be mailing and messaging everyday this week I think.

Challenge lock Defiant from unkwntech picked. I hope to get some video-ing going soon, hopefully this will be one. Haven't gutted it yet.6yr ⋅ RDecline- ⋅ r/lockpicking
LSDA & whatever Yale that is picked. Both were sadly easy. The Yale was super sensitive to tension but once you found it, it just fell open. Goodbye $2.00 you were fun for a minute.6yr ⋅ RDecline- ⋅ r/lockpicking

Praxis kit arrived yesterday. I would like to take a bit of edge off of them, they are little rough/sharp. I've got some 1500 grit paper, should that be ok? Any other recs? ...nervous to sand on the picks for some reason lol7yr ⋅ RDecline- ⋅ r/lockpicking

Extra Delighted. Turns out one of the .25 cents Schlages I just bought (see earlier post) is an Everest. Quite thrilled. Had no idea it was in the pile!7yr ⋅ RDecline- ⋅ r/lockpicking
Help/Advice for making pins? Test trying to do some pins. The chuck doesn’t hold them well and files seem like crap. Any tips? What are you all using/methods? (I’ve seen the “popular” online vids)6yr ⋅ RDecline- ⋅ r/lockpicking

Amateur Back Alley Lock Porn. Remember kids, the life of a porn lock isn’t all glamorous. Most never make it and end up in buckets with keys JB welded into them.6yr ⋅ RDecline- ⋅ r/lockpicking

Thanks greenmikey! After a long postal hangup: My First Challenge Lock Picked - now to do it a few more times and gut it. Thanks again for the lock. That was a lot fun.7yr ⋅ RDecline- ⋅ r/lockpicking
Any advice on picking this ASSA? No idea which model it is. Feels like I'm having to use more tension than normal to get anything to bind. Is that normal? Not much play on the core. (I do have a key, and it does work, and far I've just sort of done some preliminary poking at it) thanks in advance7yr ⋅ RDecline- ⋅ r/lockpicking
Disappointed Mystery Lock Gutting. Finally got around to picking one of the three mystery locks I bought awhile ago. They've been slightly difficult. Nothing fancy in this one, just made more secure with dirt. Thanks dirt. (No key)7yr ⋅ RDecline- ⋅ r/lockpicking
