[00:00:50] And that will take you right to the episode. Show notes. One quick announcement. While back I noted that I had started posting the show on Odyssey, as well as YouTube really it's an automatic thing. And that one of the features that Odyssey provided was an RSS feed for the video episodes of the. I have for a long time, had that feed linked on my website. 

[00:01:15] However, I was able through a little finessing to get that feed approved on apple podcasts. So it is now officially listed on apple podcasts. I'll see if I can get it listed anywhere else, but it is called the Locksports cast on Odyssey. I can't change that name because of the way the feed works on Odyssey. 

[00:01:37] If you're interested in a video version of The Lock Sportscast, you can, uh, also get that on your podcast player. If you have apple, I guess, or any one of the services that uses the apple index for finding it's podcasts. First item in the news today, voting has ended for the tool us board elections for 2022 tools. 

[00:02:02] Newest board members, uh, will be 90. James Pastin and Emily Keren or web Jedi. Again, I'd like to say thank you to deviant alum and Jimmy longs for the time they served on the board. Uh, the official board of directors for 2022 will be night owl, Joshua, Henry, Tony Vareli, James and Emily Corin. Um, if you want to see the actual voting results, I will have a little. 

[00:02:32] To the, up to vote site in the show notes. So you can check out exactly how many people voted for who if you want, if that, and how the algorithm works. If that's something that interests you and we have a new Locksports club called deep blue pickers, according to the website that Panda-Frog put up says Panda-Frog and Gill Gaines had the same idea and it was pure luck that they talked about. 

[00:03:01] Both worked together on the logo and got someone to do the final design. Panda-Frog started the club in Egypt, where he went diving with his friend, Sasha in April of 2022, to be a member of this club, you need to pick a lock while scuba diving at a depth of at least five meters. The official rules listed on the site are pick a lock at a depth of at least five meters. 

[00:03:24] Create a video with your underwater Peck. If you are not certified or do not have experience to do this safely, please don't risk your health. Go get some experience first, never dive alone. Have your buddy film your pick don't disturb the Marine life or damage anything in the water. Please follow the general safety advice for scuba. 

[00:03:45] As a club, we are not responsible for your actions, always be safe and take care of you and the environment. It sounds like that will be a pretty elite club cause, uh, I don't know how many of the Locksports community are actually certified for diving. So should be interesting to see how big that club gets and, uh, who is able to get. 

[00:04:07] And a congratulations to pocket woman. She is celebrating passing 700 subscribers. She says she is planning on having a giveaway. So keep watching her channel for more details on that. If she notifies me when she does the giveaway, I will, of course, share that on the show. By first, just congratulations pocket woman on passing 700 subscribers. 

[00:04:29] I believe you were 730, some. And Chirael pointed out this week, that locked judge did an overview of the Lishi. Lockpicks their article is entitled Lishi. Lockpicks master your lockpicking skills. The intro to the article among other things says that Mr. Lee developed a series of tools that not only can pick the wafers of a door allowing for physical entry to the car, but also allowed for the bidding combination of the wafers to be decoded without removing the. 

[00:05:01] For automotive locksmith with access to code cutting machines entering the decode bidding would mean a job that previously took hours can be done in a matter of minutes, the different sections of the article are entitled why you should consider Alicia lockpick as part of your picking arsenal. So how can a Lishi lockpick help? 

[00:05:22] How does Alicia tool work? So I can make sure a lock works and decode the bidding. What else can it. Which key profiles are available and type of Lishi lockpicks which Lishi tool do I need. So if you're not already familiar with leashes or you think there might be some bit of information that you aren't aware of, you might want to check that article out on the video front, D-Mac put up a couple of videos. 

[00:05:51] About making a working Beilock key. The first one is making a working bylaw key part one, using a photo to create a credit card, key template. In the description of that video, it says in this video, I will start the process of making a working key for my keyless. Beilock this first part we'll deal with transferring the bidding from a photo to a credit card, and then proving that the bidding is correct by removing the. 

[00:06:19] The second video is called making a working Beilock key part to making a working metal copy. The description of that video says this is the second of my two-part video on making a working Beilock key from scratch. In this video, I will take the credit card template from part one and use it to fashion a working metal key. 

[00:06:39] Demac also references a rookie lock video from a couple of years ago, called showing off my handiwork homemade bylaw. The description of that video says just showing off what I've been working on the last couple of days. I am so happy. I was able to make this Beilock key. I owe my buddy Paul, a huge thank you for this awesome gym. 

[00:06:59] Anyway. So if you have a bike lock that doesn't have a key, there are three videos that will be linked in the show notes that might give you a headstart in. And then a video I thoroughly enjoyed this week always can use a good laugh, uh, se locking key, put up a video called I built the world's first access controlled lock throwing catapult simply says, introducing a lockup bolt. 

[00:07:25] Just don't try this at home. Very funny video. I loved, uh, Kim's reaction in the background. You can hear her reacting to his local. And you get to see his challenges in developing it and the, the missteps and the way he corrected those. I thought it was great. I was laughing. It really enjoyed it. I have personally suggested this video on the lucky awards website for, uh, 20, 22 Lockie awards under both funniest and most creative video categories. 

[00:07:57] So that will be on the list. Moving on to products. Hooligan keys impressioning handles are coming back. It looks like posted to the Hogan keys, Instagram account. They said great news, everyone. We will be having a short run of impressioning handles 50 of them within the next three weeks, they will be available on hooligan keys.com for $85.

[00:08:47] They are a really simple but effective design, definitely worth considering if you are either into impressioning or planning on getting into. And Lock Pickers. United is officially doing another run of their LPU picks this year for 2022. Again, there'll be 100 serial number picks all, but a handful of them are already gone.

It is from January of this year. It was entitled Edinburgh, superglue, bandit caught on CCTV targeting capital businesses published on Edinburgh, live by Ryan Nixon and Jacob. 

[00:14:04] They say Vandal dub. The superglue bandit has been causing havoc by super gluing, outdoor padlocks, and keypads, belonging to Scott's businesses. The man who appeared to be in his late thirties, targeted several businesses in Edinburgh last week, both in broad daylight and at night CCTV. A man approaching events, venue the biscuit factory on two separate occasions at, rather than 7:30 PM on the 3rd of January and 9:35 AM on the 6th of January, but it shows him casually strolling up to the venue, wearing a black jacket, gray scarf, blue jeans, trainers, and fiddling with something in his hands. 

[00:14:45] He disappears out of shot into an alcove of the door for about 15 seconds. Nonchalantly walks away after taking a quick glance around. So somebody's idea of fond is probably costing. These business is, is, uh, quite a bit of money for locksmith fees and downtime as they're blocked out, or at least customers are locked out cannabis. 

[00:15:09] And on the sales, we have a new coupon code sent in by pocket woman for bare bones. Lockpicking she said bare bones is helping to promote Aussie Locksports channels by giving out discount coupons to share with our viewers pocket women viewers are to get 20% off the ultimate lock picking kit in the Molly case using the code PW likes Molly. 

[00:15:33] Valid until 1st of May, 2022, this is a once off option and can be used once per person. This is an addition to the other sales bare bones has on items. And then I believe the code for The Lock Sportscast is still valid over there. That is listened to The Lock Sportscast 2022. The coupon code last I knew was good for 15% off storewide on top of other discounts or sale items. 

[00:16:01] So that would, I believe be on top of pocket woman's on that one item.
