@alice@lgbtqia.space I came across my first love lock a few days ago. I'd seen it a few times, but wasn't carrying my tools. I finally remembered to bring them with me today only to find that the keyway seemed to be filled with some sort of glue? Have you encountered this before? Is there any hope of non-destructive opening left? I imagine probably not (especially at my current skill level). I'm clearly not the first person who's tried to open it. It's in pretty rough shape. #locksport

After failing to pick the masterlock commercial padlock that trapped me the other day, i picked up my old practice lock- a brass almont rekey- and attempted to get my groove back. After a little quality time, im able to pick it in a minute or so. Watch out masterlock. #locksport

The conference was a blast! I caught most of the panel before my slot, and it was really interesting. Then they split into two breakout groups, and it felt like almost everyone chose mine 😋 The Rabbit Hole challenge tubes were a hit—there was a lot of cheering whenever someone opened one and got their prizes 😁 Three picks needed some corrective surgery afterwards, but all the equipment made it back to me by the end of the hour ❤️‍🩹 All in all, I feel like it was a very successful lockpicking village. #Conference #Locksport #Workshop
