    When i was kid, i took my parents safe key and made a outline of it in paper then i use that outline to make a key out of video game cd. My small ass mind thought that it would be nice idea to use plastic material as a key. Then i tried to open the safe, only outer handle rotated, the key didnot rotate, ended up breaking the plastic key with half of it inside the hole. I did it so that i can buy video game cd without asking money. I gave up everything and i was preparing myself mentally to get hard ass slap from parents. Luckly found some twisers and pulled half piece out

      I've never picked a lock in my life, but I do watch LockPickingLawyer. I'm going to guess a filing cabinet has a very simple and cheap lock and suggest that before you spend time trying to pick it the proper way, try to jiggle it open with something that has a shape somewhat similar to a key. Anyway, tell me if you opened it, I'm curious!

    Holy mackerel it worked! I was trying to open an empty office cabinet that I was given at work without keys. It was a little different because the whole lock mechanism seemed to come out but then I could easily turn the latch with a small screw driver. I used the 2 paper clip method and I can see how the correct tools would be a lot easier, but then the lock I was working on was probably a very easy lock. This was fun! I can see how it becomes a hobby easily. Thanks!
