hello from Wales

Hi there,
im Rick/Rich from Wales. Been picking about 6 months, and im properly addicted.

I had ignition problems on my van, so watched a couple of car lock vids. Then this guy called BosnianBill popped up, so I watched one if his vids. It was a very quick downward slide from there really.

I started with southord 2010 euro set, which I love but has taken a battering from my learner clumsy fingers. I have some madbob picks, and a few custom picks I've made or traded.

Im better at raking at the moment. My Spping is catching up slowly. I have done a couple of vids, apologies for the quality. Link here to my first if anyones interested, hope that's ok?

Im active on a Uk based lock sport forum, which has been an incredible asset, and full of lovely helpful people. They taught me everything I know.

Heard about you guys, thought id check you out.

Rick.

Re: hello from Wales

Hi Jeff, Steve and Mike.

Its great to be here guys, lots of fascinating stuff.

thanks for subscribing Mike, I promise they will get better.

Im a brass padlock whore, especially Abus. Had a few American locks, love the master 140, learnt lots from them. I have a lovely American barrel padlock I keep trying to open on video. Im pleased with my picking progress, but I lack consistency.

Rick.
