I carry a lock pick set in my plumbing truck. Every once in a while it comes in very handy. My warning to you is this, if you thought plumbing requires a great deal of patience, triple it and try picking a lock.

Ha!

Kid in my old neighborhood could get in with a pick, fast as I could w a key!

“agency” friend is nearly as fast.

Depends on technique and the lock...

I had the master key for my Vespa LX150 (on consignment) stolen at a motorcycle dealer. No key to remove the cylinder from the ignition lock body. A local locksmith (best in town) failed to open it. That annoyed me. I've been picking locks since junior high school. I did the job in 5 minutes with two paper clips. The guy in the video is a slowpoke. That Vespa lock is a double sided wafer design too.
