Learn to lockpick!

It might help you out sometime.

(It's helped me out twice now)

Items needed.

1 safety pin - large size

1 small screwdriver

A lot of time on your hands.

If you would have called, I would have told you the combination, dude.

I locked my keys in my car once and got a slim jim from the Dollar Store to get them out...SCORE!

I used to watch my buddy routinely pick common residential deadbolts. He constructed a zig-zag looking key-like thing, and then a tension wrench that basically was just a L-shaped unit. He made them out of twisted stainless steel safety wire. It was cool. He only used his powers for good though.

AFAIK actual lockpick kits are illegal to possess.

CORRECT ( unless you are a locksmith )

And it is important to note to only use the power for good. IE breaking into your own home.... not others.

The saw tool is generally used to flutter the pieces into place vs picking each one individually.
