About the Author

The author has been a lock-picking enthusiast from childhood. His youthful enthusiasm for locks even inspired him to build lock sets out of LEGOs. Like many people, he disassembled the household TV and VCR as a child. Sometimes, he even managed to reassemble them. He enjoys tinkering with equipment until it finally does what he wants, not what it was intended for. Recently, he has decided to share his enjoyment and practical skill of lock picking by writing this visual guide.
