Oldfast: Safe Chronicles
Posted: Thu Dec 13, 2012 2:43 pm
Thread inspired by: femurat's documented manipulations over on LP101.
A very special thanks to Mark . Who (through his generosity) has helped me open a door to a world that has
intrigued me for years! A door that has long since seemed sealed shut to the likes of me.
I only have my foot in the door at the moment.... but at least I'm in.
This thread will be for documenting some of my manipulations. It will include both my successes and failures.
My true motive for this thread - TO LEARN. The more of my experiences I put out... the more feedback I'll receive.
how to improve upon techniques, learn new ones, confirm I'm doing it correctly, or completely wrong, shortcuts, etc. etc.
Information flows more freely on this forum than anywhere I know. But even here, when it comes to the topic of manipulation,
there's still a hint of reserved silence (a code if you will).... and with good reason. I thoroughly understand and respect this!
In fact, it comforts me to know that the professionals conduct themselves as such. I realize that some things can only
be acquired through years of experience and hundreds of manipulations.... I am prepared to put that time in. But I
also believe some of the most fantastic methods and secrets exist with you, and will not be found in any book.
I can only hope that some of you will allow me to tap into some of your experience, even if just a little.
(If it sounds a little like I'm begging.... it's probably because I am) lol
I like to think over the past couple years I've made a solid & trustworthy name for myself around here. And I'm hoping
at least a few of you will feel the same when it comes to sharing some of your time and knowledge. And if not now,
then maybe a few years from now. (I'll still be here : ) My intentions are just, and my passion..... genuine.
My status at the moment: Absolute beginner. I've worked through an old LockMasters course, read Matt Blazes' paper on
"Safecracking for the Computer Scientist", and I'm currently nearing the end of "National Locksmith's Guide to Manipulation".
There's much to be absorbed from all three of these pieces yet, but I'm now in the thick of it... 8-12 hours a day.
If I'm not spinnin' a dial.... I'm reading about spinnin' a dial.
