That is not a good idea... you don't own it, and it's in use.

This idea sounds like it has DDT all over it.

D.D.T., Don't Do That.

If you must play with a Best SFIC, try begging a used of off your friendly neighborhood lokie.

I think the BEST option here is ? .............a shed loads of lock-picking experiance ,
Stick around - in a few year you will be able to pick a best lock - right now you have no hope even if you had the tension tool and hook.

You don't own the lock so you should not be picking it. Also those locks are probably master keyed and you can mess up the lock picking it. Get yourself a master brand padlock and we can start there.

The big "F" on the key stands for ......Forget it !!!!!!!!! Go buy a padlock and practise on something that you own. It would cost you a lot more to fuck the lock up and get someone to replace it tha it would to buy a lock in a shop that you have the right to pick!!!!!!

But if your serious about picking then good luck in picking your first lock ....it is fun, its entertaining and be warned it can get expensive.......and im a newbie to it but ive already spent a couple of hundred........and im just getting more addicted!!!!!!!
