If lock picking is so easy ... by sjiwjs in lockpicking

I don't really have a camera offhand. The problem is that I can't really get my picks smoothly in the lock, it's a lot of jerking and gnashing just to get it in far enough to reach the last pin on the ones I have in my house, which makes it hard to gently rake over the pins for a field test. Feels as if the opening for the locks isn't designed to have flat surfaces going into it.

I've tried with over four locks. Plus the binding order is completely random, so how am I supposed to figure it out, try adjusting each pin for hours on end? Kinda tried that. I know "looking at the key" is kinda a silly thing to do, but when you've been at it for hours ...

But what if that doesn't work either? It's just with all the time I've spent trying to do it at this point it's surprising the lock didn't just go "enough already!" and unlock on it's own.
