You would be surprised how often I get a question about the ‘weird’ picks in the GOSO 24 Piece set! So, is it GOSO A-Go-Go or GOSO A-No-Go? :-)
I've actually got this set of picks, I bought them because they were very cheap at the time off ebay if I remember correctly.
I have used them a few times and I must say I've been presently surprised with the quality of them so it's a GOSO A-Go-Go from me ;-)
Here is an identical set that goes under the brand name of DANIU from Banggood.com for less than a tenner www.banggood.com/DANIU-24pcs-Single-Hook-Lock-Pick-Set-Locksmith-Tools-Lock-Pick-Kit-p-1169200.html?rmmds=myaccout-bottom-alsolike__3&cur_warehouse=UK
I'm not sure of the quality with these ones, but for someone just starting out at the sport a tenner for a set of picks ain't a bad start.
Thanks for watching and congrats on making the feedspot list :-) The picks are thick, but sadly, the metal is quite prone to bending and isn't in the same league as Sparrows steel. Still, with care and a more experienced touch, they aren't too bad.
Depends, I used to live in a rough area and rather than fit an alarm to a very cheap car I took the battery out at night. Nobody ever managed to steal it.
I have this set. Not my first, I have the MAC tools auto set so had something to compare with. The thickness of the picks put me off immediately which is a shame as they have great handles. I also had to grind the y wrench to fit in any locks I wanted to use it in and the sheer bulk of it meant it fell out regularly. A good starting point perhaps but not my go-to kit...
A go go
Hey son merry christmas, now you can try your luck on getting that one car you've always wanted.

Momma?

Hahah damn that was purely a dad joke right there
Your becoming my favourite fellow British lock picker on RUclips, as an amateur lock picker myself I love the way you discribe the tools! Fun story, a friend has poked fun at me for having such a(in his words) boring hobby for a while now, until he locked himself out of his house a few months ago and after being shocked at the price of a real locksmith, he reluctantly called me and as I opened the,, old rim style yale lock he had using a zip technique with a snake rake,after just two attempts. I couldn't resist having some banter with him by saying,, sorry if me saving you money by getting you back in was too boring for you lol 🏴
Its a really great hobby!
My first set was basically identical to this (also branded GOSO, identical selection of picks, but the handles were green) and it's so much better than people give it credit for, I've seen loads of people saying the steel is terrible and they just bend and snap, but my standard hook stood up to 2 years of abuse before I finally replaced it, and then it had another several months of abuse at the hands of the friend I gave the set to before he replaced it too. Feedback could be a little better, but I can still use them and get a good idea of what's going on inside the lock. For the price you really can't complain, it was dirt cheap and lasted for literal years
Master Lock comes here from the LockPicking Lawyer channel: NOOOO..... NOT OUR LOCK AGAIN......
Creatip ha
hehehe :-)
Haha yeah a tyrap is more secure than a masterlock.
@@pietikke5598 Not quite. The masterlock does at least look, at a glance, very similar to a real lock, which offers more of a security benefit than you might expect. Apart from that, they're about even with the tie-wrap, not beaten by the tie-wrap, and maybe even with a bit of edge on durability vs most common varieties of tie-wrap, so including the looks-like-a-lock factor, the masterlock definitely wins vs the tie-wrap.
They're still garbage.
alot of people bag out the goso kit so it creates a subculture of people either been embarresed or scared to get it. but every tool has a use and in the hands of a skilled user the magic happens. i own alot of different brands and some of the most expensive tools you can buy and still i use parts of the goso kit. thanks alot for doing a video on this.
I agree entirely with everything you wrote :-)
I’ve been studying intensely the past four days and expanding my knowledge basic . I AM gaining more knowledge and a better understanding of the need for different gauges . Lots more to learn . I’m grateful for your experience and wisdom . Well done .
Wauw! I got a lockpick set containing similar picks like these, and now I finally know what they're for :) Thanks!
Thanks 🙏
I've watched a lot of lock picking videos on RUclips. One thing I have learnt. Don't buy a Master Lock. Unless it's to play with.
Amen! Masterlock was my go to for practicing lockpicking! In a way i have masterlock for getting me started and graduating to harder locks
Actually, I think Master locks are fairly expen$ive, given the generally low level of security and pick resistance they offer. Sadly, they're just about the only kind of locks I can find around the shops here in Central Queensland (AU). Even a tiny brass lock is about $10 or more.
I wish I could find some different kinds of locks without having to fork out too much money. Just have to keep hunting around.
@@shaunoleary7092 you guys have masterlocks? My local store just has some locks that are made by some random company.
@@erebys21 Yeah we do. I'm in Queensland Australia.
Master Locks are about $20+ a pop for even basic locks. On the other hand, I bought a cheap Chinese lock for $5 from a discount variety shop a month ago, and it's got me stumped!
@@shaunoleary7092 well, lucky you. My bumfuck nowhere village has a tool section in the local general store. There are literally 2 locks on sale.
Thank You so much for Posting this video! I bought this kit last year and had no idea what the back part of this tool kit was, and it's intended use! I really appreciate this tutorial.
I'm glad you found it useful :-)
I knew some of the double sided rakes are for automotive locks, but I've found that the double and triple peak rakes work very well in certain padlocks!! Thanks for your time and expertise!!
Thanks 😊
Really helpful video, for everyone just starting out in locksport. Fantastic video.😎👍
Thanks Daz :-) this was my first ever kit. I outgrew it almost immediately and went for the Southord c2010 kit, but I still use some of the picks now and again :-)
For wide-keyways, the GOSO pics are great because they're more rigid than thin picks. They also have very nice, comfortable handles. Best kit for a new picker.
Excellent video.
I bought some of these years ago and have never seen them used.
Thank you
They are pretty fun, if not durable. Crack them out :-)
This was my first kit (I bought myself with a clear lock) and it’s still the only kit I have. I was more worried about how much force they could endure than anything else, but they held up just fine. I was confused about the stuff in the second half of the kit and googled it. All it said was the tools were for double-sided locks. Thanks to this video, I now know much better their uses. Also, I love that torsion tool too. Just wish one end of it wasn’t as wide so I could use it in smaller locks lol. All of my (non-clear) locks have tiny key ways.
i remember finding a "tool" of some sort a few years ago when i was metal detecting an old property. i initially thought it was a pipe cleaner tool, but now that i've seen and been introduced into the locksport, i'm thinking that tool is actually a lock pick set! if so, it was a very simple pick set, i think there were 4 picks and it folded up like a jack knife and about the same size.
anyway, i'm just a beginner, have a set much like the set in the video and now i know what some of those weird looking things are for!! very informative, thanks for the post!! :)
Cool, my brother just gave me a set like this for my birthday, had no idea what they were all for lol. Thanks for the video and all the explanation of what they do!
I'm new to picking. Thank you for the clarification. Mike
No worries and happy picking :-)
Thank you! I just got this exact kit earlier this evening! Very excited to begin my journey on lock picking.
Awesome!
This is the set I got when I decided to pick up locksport, because the price was right and it had a good variety. Thank you for explaining because it's not easy to find information out there about a double-sided automotive tension wrench or something like that. It's a good kit for someone that isn't sure if they are really going to like locksport because the price is right and it has a good variety so you learn what picks you like and you can do just about any technique with it: you can single-pin pick, you can zip, you can rake, it has nice tools for wafer and pins. The only problem I've had is they bend side-to-side and soon become hard to fit down a keyway if they're subjected to any weight pressing on the kit (happened during a move).
Thank You. If I become famous or rich I will name you.
This was my first lock pick set. Taught me a lot. Came in handy. Made me realize how much you could learn a lock and not know how to open another.
very true :-)
THIS!!! I got my very first lock down to where I could rake it a single time and it would open, every time I did it. Thought I was hot shit until I was asked to pick open a Subaru door when my neighbor locked her keys in it...took me a solid 5 minutes to get in to that stupid car!
Very humbling indeed!
Fantastic video! I only discovered your channel today... I'm not sure how I never came across it earlier/years ago? I am not exaggerating when I say that since getting into LockSport nearly a decade ago, I've immersed myself in any and all information I could find. From online message boards to Facebook groups to RUclips videos... Even though this video is several years old, it is new to me, and refreshing to find something I've not yet come across.
My gear consists of both the mini and regular sized titanium Bogotas, and from there ALL the rest is from Sparrow Lock Picking.
They produce such a phenomenal array of quality products, and at an awesome price, IMHO of course.
Oh my God, thank you! I just bought this exact kit for my son's birthday, and I had no idea what those were.
That was great. Very informative for people who never knew what those were.
It took me time to find out . Nice job!
Thanks Curt :-)
I had just recently purchased a set exactly like that. I had my suspicions about the picks in the back. You confirmed what I thought. This is my 2nd set. My first set was a cheap 5 piece set that I have incorporated into this new one.
Let me guess.. Was the 5 piece the credit card kit? That 5 piece kit helped me learn how to pick, i actually still have the same on from over 7yrs ago! Good set that helped me learn. I then went from the 5 piece, to the goso, then a southord and so on to a sparrows
@@backwoodsjunkie08 My first set did have 5 pieces in it. It was not the credit card kit though. I do not remember who made it. I gave it to my nephew to learn with and since then, gave him this same set for Christmas.
I have a feeling those odd rakes are more for those "inner groove" type car locks that were quite popular for a while.
Yeah, I recon you could be right, but they are certainly versatile :-)
Well executed review 👍🏻
The hook with a notch I have found works really well on wafers (like you said) and when one of the other rakes tend to struggle I turn to that hook with a notch to spp the wafers. I haven't picked any automotive locks but those 1,2 & 3 half diamond lookalikes I found works really well on dimple locks.
My first kit was the James Bond credit card set. Then the Goso kit, then a snap gun, then a jacknife. When they didn't work on some locks I turned to Sparrows and Multipick.
Oh man I enjoy lock picking (for fun I mean) and it's helped me in my job too. So for me it's thumbs up all round 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Roy :-) My kit was this kit, but my first picks were a weird little set of 5 half size picks that came with a plastic padlock :-)
My dad got me this exact kit a few years back... I thoroughly remember sitting down with the cheap transparent lock it came with and picking it while i waited to take my Knowledge test at my local DMV...
I eventually put the kit away for about 2 years and here I am now... I found it again after seeing a few of these videos.. and my dad just so happened to accidentally leave a Master Lock No.3 on the dineing room table for no real reason at all...
So i did what came natural and grabbed my tools and after a quick SPP session i opened the lock... My father peaked his head around the doorway and the next thing I knew I ordered Sparrows Night School kit, and now a few weeks later, just yesterday Ive picked up a few more locks, a giant Carabiner to organise them... And The Revolver from Sparrows is on it's way right now (Along with the Medusa you designed)
Say what you will about this kit...
It got me into one of the best hobbys ive ever dove headfirst into!
Yes, it was my first kit and while I wouldn’t recommend it to beginners, I too have a soft spot for this set!
@@LockNoob i agree, that Transparent lock is just... Well... Not good...
But the tools kinda held up... Until i grabbed my Sparrows picks... Then I couldn't simply go back...
Might as well add that that Revolver i ordered has some ludicrously difficult bidding on it's key and I've been struggling with it for like... Probably in total now about 3 hours just on it's first "Chamber" one day ill get it though!!
Lol i have a giant tackle box full of locks i have "Borrowed" off of old abandon chain gates! The tackle box probably weights 50lbs🤣
I literally just got this in and I was like "what am I going to do with all this???". Well, now I know. My kit is EXACT to this one!! Thanks for all the info! Only one question. Which of the picks will work for a bike lock? You know, the round lock?
@@pootatotree7546 heh! Yeah I mean like a horseshoe lock. But I don't think the kit comes with a pick that will do those
Shim.
@@AvenValkyr like a kryptonite? That's a disc detainer lock. They make special disc detainer picks, but you can pick it with just about any skinny hook with a much larger struggle. Look at LPL's disc detainer lock that he made with Bosnian Bill from SparrowsLockPicks.
The second section is meant specifically for automotive applications. Additionally, for the locks you show as two different car door locks, the lock on the left is NOT a car door lock. It is an ignition key way (to start and run your car).
You're right but I seem to have always used the same key to open the door and start the car.
@@Cekmore You may note, however, that there are a couple more wafers in the ignition key way than there are in the actual door. Kind of a silly security feature, but it's there to prevent the person breaking into your car from actually starting it and stealing it. Old tech that has become redundant over the years, they just haven't taken it out so they can justify charging you more for a lost key. Been there, done that, got no t-shirt but a bit of advice from a locksmith friend.
@@mythrilsentinel1 Are you sure that the ignition is the one with more?
The reason I ask is that some cars used to come with a "valet key". I believe (but might be wrong) that the key worked in the ignition (so that the valet could retrieve your car) but didn't unlock the trunk or glovebox. I don't actually know.
I just got a set just like this. And yes I was very confused on what some of those picks are. So glad I found this video. Thanks mate.
Thanks 😊
Just love all the videos you put out, demystifying the craft. As a beginner I learnt so much from you and enough to get going.
Wow, thank you!
Great review and demonstration. Love the pickle fork lol. Have a great weekend and thanks for sharing.
I think you might just be the only person who noticed that lol :-)
Another great video! Thank you for taking the time to make!
Thank you :-)
It gave me indeed a very good insight! Thank you Sir :)
Great video, bought this same kit for a 1st set. So I had always wondered what the 2nd half of the kit was for.
A very good explanation on the GOSO set Ash. Best I've seen in a while. You can file down the dimple rack to work in many locks. Thanks for sharing, forgot about my set for $10.00. LOL!!!!
Yes, I remember someone telling me about that mod, I should have mentioned it! :-)
@@LockNoobOr could show it sometime.
Great video. You answered all the questions i had about the kit. The shallow diamond is a decent single pin pick on some locks.
Awesome, thank you!
First set I bought, along with the 7 pin ultimate challenge lock. Can't complain, and I'm glad I've got car picks to help out any unfortunate friends!
Good choice!
Thanks! I've wondered wondered what they were ever since I got the kit.
I'm glad I could help :-)
"What ARE they?"
"They're Solar FREAKING Roadways!"
...Couldn't resist, since that scam is forever tied to that phrase for me.
Good luck :-)
I had to Whatch this vid to find out what the x shaped thing metal piecies were. Wire wrench. Think he called em I got same set and picks popped a industersil. Master lock in less than twenty minutes. First one ever
"Some of them make particularly good pickle forks" say Boeing chief engineer. Whoops!
*high pitched thunderfoot voice* Weeeeeeeelllll, not exactly
I am intermediate picker now , but , I still use my first chinese pick kit. Mine is Daniu branded , but , for wide keyways and "stubborn" locks , these picks are - the best ! :)
ah yes... I wonder if GOSO still exist or if Dainu took them over?
Can't say for sure , but I think they do exist. They're just a bit more expensive than Daniu. :) I saw once GOSO set selling for $39.99 on some site , but that's not the original price from China. They were reselling them.
Thanks for explaining all that-my set of lock picks is a little less mysterious now. So far, I've only been able to pick the practice lock that came with the kit.
Well, this isn’t the best kit out there, but it will pick some Master Locks for sure. Happy picking!
Nice work mate. I've never used or had that set. I knew what the double sided picks wafer picks are but not the long thin one's in with them. 👍🤘🖖🍻
thanks for watching friend :-)
Fantastic!! Thank you for this incredible video.
Excellent clear and simple tutorial thank you very much for your teaching.
You are welcome!
I've got the Goso kit. A bit thick but I sanded down some of the hooks on a sanding belt to 0.018" .
that's brave with that metal! :-)
@@LockNoob that is what I was thinking as I did that very thing down to .020. It was WAY too thin for the type of metal they are made from. I ruined most of my set and had to buy another one
Id use a file next time. The heat generated from a belt sander will weaken the metal
have this set myself. Was my first kit, then learned more and bought a sparrows set.
My first real set too :-)
Same here, i got a sparrows and southord
I ordered a set of tubular impression tools from amazon to try to open my keyless soda machine, and was sent this instead. Decided to keep it and I now grab a tool out of it here n there when practicing, to reduce stress on my main tools.
Thank you for this video. I just got that set(or similar from an app) and I was confused about the back half of the pouch. Thank you Thank you thank you!
Just ordered one with a transparent lock here in Maine for $13.71 including shipping. Thanks for suggesting and reviewing it.
Thanks!
I don't know why, but that birthday present at the beginning of the video cracks me up. Must have watched that bit a dozen times now. Not sure if it's because it's addressed to 'Lock Noob, love Mum', implying 'Mum' calls her son Lock Noob, or if its because Lock Noob went to the trouble of wrapping it and writing that on it. Whatever it is, it has me in stitches (I'm a simple man with simple tastes!).
Anyway, just received my first set of picks today, Multipick Elite 17 and they look and feel fantastic.
Keep up the good work Lock Noob!
At least someone appreciates my ‘sense of humour’ 😅
That Goso kit was my first set too. Metal is soft and easy to bend but mine came with 4 identical medium hooks so I have spares. Clean them up and they are good beginner set. Nice case too.
4! Lucky you ;-)
Interesting topic ! Just to widen our common knowledge for a lock is precious ! Thanks for sharing !
thank you :-)
This was the 'BEST' video for me because I just got the very same kit yesterday so it was 100% relevant. Only cost USD5 shipped to a Southeast Asian country so it was a no brainer.
Cool!
Interesting vid. Yeah I was a noob who bought this kit. The only tool in it I've found useful is the double sided wafer rake. It's great for opening cashbox tins
just got the set you are showing only started picking about a week ago so your video has help
thanks
Thanks :-)
I grabbed a set of finger files and went to work on the #8 pick since it has the most material to work with. By flattening it down into a standard short hook, narrowing the profile and slimming it down a bit, I managed to create a fairly serviceable pick. Nothing like my Sparrows or Peterson hooks (steel still sucks knob) but it's now far more useable than anything else in the set.
Good work!
You're a genius mate greatly appreciate the lecture.
Thanks 🙏
aha! got this set as part of a "beginner's set" that came with some practice plastic see-thru locks, only difference was no decal on the case, thanks for the video
I've only used the picks on the other side lol. Always worked for me 🤣it was the first picks you showed that I have trouble with.
This is kind of late since this was supposed to 2 years ago but the hard wire keyway tension tool can be made better by grinding it to the size you need. I have one just like it and that's what I did and it works great.
Fantastic explanation Ash my friend plenty of people buy these kits and at least with this video they can understand what they are for😎😊😎😊👍🇬🇧
I think before buying something is better to know all about it then to ask after the deal. For me it's good case full of junk. At the beginning of picking locks set of tensions and hook #1 is enough.
Thanks for this - I have pretty much this set as my beginner kit (slightly different - the picks are plain steel coloured rather than gold/brass - and came with arcrylic padlock) and I was curious about what some of the weirder picks were intended for.
Never thought about using them as pickled onion forks, but now that you mentioned it ... :D
You're very welcome!
I got this exact kit, but without the brand name Goso. I like it pretty much. The cheap practice lock is too easy to open. Another older lock of mine is a bigger challenge but I managed to open it at least once with the pick set.
That's a sweet kit. I wish I had some picks for double sided wafers
Just got my set unlocking everything it's way too easy love it.
You have another dedicated subscriber thanks for the in site and love the fact you reply to your comments 🖒🖒👏👏
Thanks 😊
Awesome, I have a set just like that. You were very helpful.
No worries
Great video. Thanks! Happy Holidays!
Same to you!
I buyed Abona and Monith rake and they are real good! Super video like always! This Goso set is a good base to make your own lockpicks further.Keep up with the good work!
Thanks for the video! i got this pick set.. and it came with no instructions.. or explanation of any kind! this really helped a lot!
Thanks 🙏
lmao i started out in picking with this exact same kit
tmxs was it actually only $10 because I cant find it close to thay
@Daniel F. isn't it unsettling that it only takes 70 bucks to get into your $120 locks?
@@magmafalse559 pick a schlage primus and call me a noob again
Same
Shdjdjaskdj Ajdjdjsjdieoq it was pretty bad
If I'd only watched this video two days ago I wouldn't have had to have broken the side back window of my truck. True story. halfway through the video I grabbed the wafer tools in my Chinese pick kit and opened my truck up in 20 seconds. Thanks for the awesome videos!
Sorry to hear that!
Thanks, I wondered what that silver Y tensioner thing was for. Also the prongy split thingy, I gathered it was for some weird lock, but great explanations all the same!😎👍
Thanks
The Geezer it’s for car door locks
Thank you very much!
I have the same set I bought a long time ago then spent over a year ignoring it and lock picking in general.
Only my set has no markings on it, and I had no idea what it was.
I particularly was confused as to what the hell that dimple rake was, and unsure how to use the wafer picks although I knew what they are, and also not knowing the purpose of the Y wrench.
I didn't really like this set, but now I see it in a different light I think I will try to "thin them down" with sandpaper and make something useful out of that odd dimple rake.
It’s not a GREAT set by any means, but I do find it useful on occasion!
@@LockNoob no not the best set. Once I got my sparrows I pretty much ignored the goso's except I liked their selection of tension wrenches better than the ones that came with my sparrows. But like I said, after watching your video I'm going to give them a second chance...after I apply a little love and sandpaper.
I do have this goso set they are good for wide keyways ☺️👍
yup, and they sure do need a wide keyway! :-)
I have that kit. Thank you for the knowledge
Thanks :-)
Great explanation of them all!
Thank you :-)
Great review & demonstration of those Goso's.
Thanks William :-)
They work great with the Sparrows Gridlocks. Considering the tensioners the set comes with it leads me to believe it's aimed at automotive locks.
It is i think
Just subscribed Lock Noob thanks for your explanation on all the picks, going to get this set to start of with as I am thinking of doing the MLA course and becoming a fully qualified Locksmith and changing my trade
Good luck with the qualifications :-)
Where do.you go to do the course? I'm a mobile mechanic and have been since getting out of the Marine Corps back in 99. I recently self-taught the art of lock manipulation and no longer have to sub out that sort of work when customers require it.
Well done "show & tell". As you daid I'm sure there new picker out there that found this info very useful.
Thanks Gantry, I hope so :-)
@@LockNoob I certainly did! Thank you!
This was my first set about 2 years ago. They did the job for the purpose of initial learning but still use them as fall back picks & rakes. I've used the car picks too. Got in to my car within 30 seconds which was worrying!
That is worrying, lol! Yeah, one of these was my first kit too :-)
The pickle fork bit made me chuckle. There I was, thinking these are coffee stirrers or back scratchers. Now I know.
I confirm... The pick you're using at 7'55" (with 2 teeth) works perfectely on a European Citadel lock, and also on many padlocks... You could design pics like that for Multipick (with 1 tooth, 2 or 3 teeth), they don't have that kind of pics in their catalogue , and you're obliged to buy a full Goso kit to find them... ;)
Pretty cool I bought one if those kits and gave up but after watching your video I will take it up again !
Thanks 🙏
I've modified some of the profiles that I didn't have any use for to better fit locks I'm working on. I suppose I can get a whole new kit if I need to.
Hello. Yes I got that lock kit. Thanks for the info 👍 ....just in case maybe I need a jar of little onions 😂👌
stops your fingers smelling weird at least :-)
I found it useful to harden the picks with a torch and a cup of water. it makes them significantly stronger against bending. Also, pick number 15 makes a decent dimple pick if you can't afford a nice set.
Great informative video, as a beginner, you do go through quite a few picks, however they are a false economy, because of the inherently inferior quality steel used in the these budget Goso and similar brand Chinese pick sets. For longevity, high quality spring steel is my choice of material.
that is a good choice. I prefer Government or Max Yield 301 stainless , personally :-)
Thank you for answering the mystery of those odd little rakes.🧐
Thank you for a very clear and useful video. I have a set of these picks, but I have heard such negative things about them that I have never actually used them. A complete beginner, I would love to get to know these picks better, and you have explained why I should!
They are a fun kit for the price as long as you are aware of the pros and cons :-)
They aren't as bad as they are made out to be, I've picked a sc1 Schlage mortice, Master Lock 140, abus 55/40 and an American 1100. I'm building a better kit 1-2 picks at a time.
Hahahahahaa 😂 fantastic. I lost my motorcycle key. I live in the netherlands, so getting someone else to do it will take a lot of money. So now i will get myself a grade on lock pikking just for good messure😎 thank you for profiling precisely what i needed ❤️
Haha I got this set for my birthday.
Thanks
Awesome :-)
Lol, I got this exact kit for my birthday. These picks are really thick (0.033" for mine), so I have had to order some thinner ones to get into American locks.
I'm in this demographic! Thanks for posting.. :)
Thanks for watching 🙏
This was my first and current set but $14 and no brand name lol + a clear plastic lock. As usual great video l
One of these was my forst kit too. I still have and use it :-)
@@LockNoob I use mine still, but the sparrows picks are becoming my go to picks
I enjoyed your video very much. Thank you. It's appreciated.
Thanks 🙏
Awesome video dude!! Very informative, thanks ^^
Thanks 🙏
