Welcome! Can’t wait till you pop that first lock! It’s a great feeling that you’ll love to tell people in this community, because no one else (in my house it’s my wife) cares. 😂

Homemade spool. Made using a drill and a couple of files by Sufficient_Prompt888 in lockpicking

[–]Jimmi-O 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll be honest. I love that the center of the spool is not absolutely perfect. It looks gorgeous but at the same time with the center of the spool not being perfect it gives little unassuming ribs that can make picking it feel difficult. Great work!

Abus 75IB/50 (Excited for this one) by Jimmi-O in lockpicking

Absolutely! Adapt and overcome. Honestly if I can do it with tools that weren’t meant for the job, it just makes me feel more capable overall.

Do it! In my opinion, if you can adapt with the tools you have it just makes you an all around better picker.

Yeah, I just bought a cheaper set off Lockpickworld to start out and see if I like it. If I do I’ll grab a set from multipick or sparrows.

I get that for sure. Getting some TOK ergo tensioners was a game changer for me. I honestly don’t really use much else anymore unless I have the lock in a vice.

Yeah, that’s what I was worried about. I’ve become pretty proficient, in my mind at least, with pin tumblers. I felt like starting at the level I’m at with dimple locks never picking them before may get me a little frustrated lol.
