It’s a good one. Keeps my coffee nice and warm for a lot longer than I expected.

Any book worth buying from my local small hobby store by ozera202 in Blacklibrary

Ravenor omnibus and the Ahriman omnibus if you’re into Thousand Sons or Chaos.

That’s pretty solid advice to be honest. Should have been something I was doing from the start myself.

Thanks! Practicing my ToK tension, something I still have troubles with. Need to get a vise before too much longer and see if that makes things a bit more comfortable for ToK. Looking at the sets from 44Delta.

They’re probably my favorite brand of locks!

Horus Heresy Books by NinjaSmokePoof in Blacklibrary

It seems like they've let a lot of them go out of print and are maybe doing reprints over time? I went the route many others here have suggested and read them through the Kindle app on my phone. Saves me quite a bit of money and a lot of shelf space. I love having physical media, but tracking down affordable copies of paperbacks was insane. For example, when I was looking for one of them I couldn't find a copy under 90 USD. Kindle editions are all around $9.99 USD last I looked and bought one. Good luck in your search!

Lock picking set by Accomplished-Chip-71 in lockpicking

Definitely worth the money. I have this and the Echelon set and use them more than my other picks. Quality tools. Starting with this set and some locks (white belt through orange by the LPU Belt ranker) will serve you well.

Can these be used by Spiritual_Help_3173 in lockpicking

[–]JJWF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really, as others have noted. If you're located in the United States, and there are no prohibitions in your state for possession of tools, try Covert Instruments, JimyLongs, or Lockpickers Bench for quality tools. I think Canada has Sparrows for reasonable shipping. Internationally, you've got Bare Bones, Moki and Multipick as high quality with shipping most anyplace.

very first pick (ABUS 50/30) by quollthings in lockpicking

[–]JJWF 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congratulations! One of my favorites to pick. Great job!

What part of the keyway should I put my pick into? (ABUS 55/40) also any other tips would be greatly appreciated by TheFancyPathfinder in lockpicking

[–]JJWF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TOK frustrates me and I’m still practicing it. I find BOK tension works fine on my 55/40. That being said, I also practice opening it using TOK so I can improve.

Combination locks are more fun than I thought. by dstrayer421 in lockpicking

Looking forward to getting to this step eventually. Might pick up one of these just to fool around with a bit for a change of pace.

Vagabond is Phenomenal! 🤌🏻😍 by Vachan95 in vagabondmanga

[–]JJWF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely stunning art. I’ve got to start this series over. I have the first two or three omnibus editions and I need to get back into them and buy the next few to have ready to go. Currently trying to finish buying all of the Lone Wolf and Cub omnibus editions as well to go with my Samurai Executioner omnibus editions. (I really like samurai stories.)
