    This was a skill I learned as a kid. I was given a locked box on the premise that I had to get it open. It took me about 2 hours to pick it, I did not know how useful the skill would prove at the time. As an adult I rarely worry about losing keys, picks can be made from darn near anything. And If I cant pick it, a can of freon and a punch will make quick work of it.

      According to google: The Freons are colourless, odourless, nonflammable, noncorrosive gases or liquids of low toxicity that were introduced as refrigerants in the 1930s; they also proved useful as propellants for aerosols and in numerous technical applications.

    Important to note that there is a trade-off between the methods. Raking is quite easy, and decently quick, but it can result in side-loading the pins, leading to lock degradation after repeated attempts. Picking them individually is slower and takes more skill, but it only uses vertical pressure on the pins, meaning that if it's done right, there should be no damage whatsoever to any lock. Both of them are fine for practice locks, but I'd recommend the latter for if you are trying to enter your house after losing the keys. also, keep an eye out for spool pins and other defensive mechanisms, as they can lead to a false set and require you to reset the lock. It can take quite a bit of finesse, but definitely possible.

      When my neighbor was taking out their trash it was full of stuff but one thing caught my eye and it was a ps5 box. The next day my neighbor and his wife went somewhere but I didn't know where they went but I was thinking that they might not be gone for long so i had to be quick. I watched this video and picked their lock and then once the door opened I heard a woman say "dad? Is that you?" I quickly ran back into my house and luckily the woman didn't see me but I assume that she was the neighbor's daughter so now i know that she protects the house while they're away so there's no chance of stealing the ps5 at all as long as she's there.

    I tried this for the heck of it, and it's actually easier to me than using my pick set. Plus, it's a relief to not have to worry about bending a tension wrench since I can just make another. I've found that wrapping the handles in electrical tape makes the picks and wrench more durable and easier to handle, but still works great without. Tension wrench works a lot better if you twist the handle of it, as well.

    Literally the most helpful video I've seen in like... two years. There's a lock case over the thermostat at work and for whatever reason my manager hates the AC and is totally ok with it being 76-80 degrees inside with it being hot af outside, there's no airflow, and I start sweating the minute I walk inside. I work alone at nights and I'm sorry but I refuse to be miserable. Now I can turn the AC on whenever I feel like it! No more sweaty miserable nights for meeeeeee.

      Either way, I'll get the best type of lock. Maybe by picking someone's. 😆
