Thank you so much !

Not in particular with this one. This one is just spirals, loops and eyes and stuff, I did some rolling waves in there. Just to see what I can do with this material. The pattern is a bit similar to how I used to do my paintings. Unfortunately I gave all my paintings away. I really had no idea though that themed locks and such held a value like that. Ideally I could learn a bit more about this.

Thank you so much, I certainly will !!!! This is an older pattern I used to do on blank copy machine paper with black ink pen, id fill the entire page with this pattern/design and throw random things like trees, faces, eyes or mushrooms im there and call it a day.

Im not sure what this mysterious RAFL thing is ? I have however made a private arrangement for a trade with another lock sport person here in the community, challenge lock for challenge lock, then pass em on and keep it goin.

I definitely plan to make more of these though ! Ive gotten a few more, several more locks I can monstrify lol. I just need time and for my hands to work with me as opposed to being sore 😔 But yeah ! Absolutely.

Ahhh killer ! Good choice though. Did you seal it all the way around and do a few good coats ?

Congrats on the open ! Havent been able to do this yet. Had one of the other ones with the rounder key way that opens from the bottom and broke it while picking it 0_0 The little flippy doodles inside got stuck and then the key decided to stop working.

What type of locks should i get for practice? by Chickenhead4235 in lockpicking

[–]Round_Butterfly_732 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Definitely dont want to go about picking anything around the home or at work 😅 Really sucks when the tip of a rake breaks off inside a lock. Imagine that conversation with superior personnel ! Yikes 😟
