The Lock Museum of America

[rerun12]

Hey guys,

I was chatting with a local locksmith today and he was telling me about this museum which is only a 40 minute ride for me. I know many of you don't live in my part of the world but I was wondering if anybody has been? They open May 1st so I will certainly be planning a day trip up there to see what they got going on. Maybe my first ever lock safari! Here's a link to their website:

And here's some lock porn for all you collectors (taken from their website gallery):
