Re: Locksmith home studies.
DIY Dave wrote:I took the Foley Belsaw Course and it was a good starting point. Most of the information in it can be found online, but it is helpful having it all together in books. Some of the material is so obvious it's stupid, like Identifying blanks from each other when they look nothing alike and have the ilco number stamped on them. Also you should check out Bill Phillips "The Complete Book of Locks and Locksmithing" and Kokomo's "Locksmithing 101" videos on youtube.
Bingo! I would not pay for most stuff, online study classes are a waste of time IMO. Research it yourself, there's more than enough free resources online.
