I miss BosnianBill, it always felt like my grandpa was sharing his hobby with me.
LPL and BB got me into picking locks, and so far it’s saved a couple of massive personal headaches and one extremely expensive piece of industrial equipment (for which I recieved absolutely no recognition in saving the company about $450,000-550,000 in broken equipment)
It’s also a fun quick thing to teach people and I have a spare set with me and an acrylic demonstration lock to show newbies.
I had fun at a park in south-western ohio once when I started picking all the padlocks couples were leaving on a bridge. I left about a dozen of them sitting on top of the railing.

Fun times, cheap hobby.
What ever happened to BosnianBill? I agree with your description of him seeming like a grandpa sharing.
I never got into lock picking, just did some small desk locks and such years ago, but I just loved watching him and enjoying his hobby.
