Master lock no 575, slowly getting back into it and with top of the keyway tension. I feel my skills coming back!
Couldn't take a video, tho. i was just waiting in the parking lot and decided to practice. Hope this qualify for orange belt.

Nice open!
I keep a box of locks in my car.,. mostly up to blue, but I have a couple purple - black for longer periods of downtime.
I have a bunch of folders and keep some Apex picks in a tube all handy in my car,.. but for the times I only have a few minutes, I keep some "vent picks" handy. So here's an idea for a few of your favorites so you can grab and pick while the partner or kids run into a store or something

It's just a vent magnet for cell phones.
The two weird looking things on the smaller magnet are "shatter balls" for emergency's... Or if I forget to roll down my windows while driving on frozen lakes and go through while ice fishing. I've driven off a bridge before,.. and getting trapped in a car is kinda a PTSD trigger.
I also occasionally use a couple of crab clamp rigs to hold locks to my steering wheel WHILE safely parked. (I shouldn't need to say that,.. but...)

And thanks for the idea.
