Alright, so this is risky -recommending these picks with the admin here, but I've got my reasons.
This set right here was my first lock picking set. It has everything you need to attack low security locks, but you do need to put some work into them with some sandpaper. Here is my 30 minute video review. I think I cover everything in this video if you feel like dedicating your time.
If you have more money in the budget, Southord sells a decent set for about $25 US. Link
Also, I really love Sparrows stuff. They're great for higher security locks and their tools are very presentable to any prying eyes. Plus, they require much less finishing. Here are a few good beginner kits:
One
Two
BTW, here's a copy-pasta that I made if you live in the US and want to order from Sparrows:
To get the most bang out of your buck, you want to spend more than $24.72 (total). This is because the Canadian currency's value is less than the US currency's value. Math below.
Break-even point where $CAD = $USD for Sparrows Lock Picks:
Conversion rate: $1 CAD ~ $0.78 USD
Shipping rate: $6.99 CAD
0.78(x + 6.99) = x
0.78x + (0.78)(6.99) = x
(0.78)(6.99) = 0.22x
(0.78)(6.99)/0.22 = x
x ~ $24.72 CAD and USD.
Of course, you could always PM me, and I could put together a list of stuff to fit your budget.
Locks to pick
Feel free to ask me anything!
I just bought 4 of these on amazon
Master Lock 140D Solid Brass Keyed Different Padlock with 1-9/16-Inch Wide Body, 1/4-Inch Shackle https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00004SQL7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_x.SVBb77BTH8P
Are these similar to the 140. Or something completely different
I got a Ziotek Chassis lock to prevent people from opening the case, to quickly steal the GPU. Yes, anyone can bypass these lock, but it would be more challenging than just having thumb screws.
I plan on, within a few weeks, drill a small hole at the back of the chassis, enough to fit one of these padlock using this security cable , tied down to either the bed or desk.
For the Abus 64TI/50, I use the Peterson .040 pry bar and Peterson hook 1 in .018. Once you've picked it a few times and know the binding order, the lock becomes pretty easy to pick consistently.
The Master Lock 570 is a challenging lock due to the dead core. I recommend working your way up to this lock. The Master Lock 140, Brinks 40mm (non-brass), and Abus 55/40. For these locks I use Sparrows' BOK tension and Peterson hook 1 in .025.
Once you've got these down, you can step up to the Paclock 90A, Master Lock 410, and American 1100. For these locks I'll use the previously mentioned Peterson hook 1 in .018, Peterson hook 7 in .018, the previously mentioned Peterson .040 pry bar, and the Peterson .050 pry bar.
Good luck!
This was me after like 2 days with a cheap lock pick set from amazon.
Got the Master Lock from a local grocery store for $8...I would suggest gettin a different lock if you want to keep your things lol
This is exactly what I would recommend as well. Although if you can grab a cutaway lock over an acrylic, I think they’re a bit better. But you’ll soon be done with both so it’s probably a moot point. Then I’d go MasterLock #3 and then into MasterLock 140, both are pretty available either online or in stores.
MasterLock #3 are $6 on Amazon.
MasterLock 140 are $7 on Amazon.
It says "masterlock 140" for one of the first recommendations. Is that the same as the 140D?

That was the first set I bought too. The rake and large Z tension wrench are actually decent. I broke the rake... but I still use the tension wrench often even after buying high quality sets from Peterson and Sparrows.
Might I recommend a few lower end, rakeable and single pin pickable padlocks to start off with (that clear cutaway lock is by far the easiest lock to pick I've ever picked):
Masterlock 3
Masterlock 140D
Abus 55/40
Get one with a key, they're a lot harder to crack.
Something like this

Don't get one with a thin wire.
Easy solution : buy a power bar with a timer, plug the router in it, put that in a metal locking box.

If I where you I'd try out a master lock 140 to step it up a bit. In comparison to the #3 they feel a lot better and give you better response in my opinion. Master 140
