It can also screw up the lock your trying to access by bending the pins. So don't do it to somebody you know.

Yes, I wouldn't recommend bumping at all. You should never bypass or pick a lock you don't own, and there's no fun in bumping your own locks...

	Also (and I mentioned this in another thread), but unless you can get key blanks and pin spacing for professional locks, all bump keys will do is enable you to break into peoples' houses, which is bunk. Coming To a Theatre Near You!

	Yeah, that's pretty much true, it kinda depends on what kind of building. Some buildings do use unrestricted shlage keyways and I've even seen a kwikset before, but for the most part it's gunna be like, Best sfic cores and the like with restricted keyways...good luck getting a blank, and as Mr. Coffee said, good luck finding pin spacing or getting a locksmith to cut you a bumpkey for a restricted keyway.

	There is a thread and some great information about this topic on the boards. Yes, I found it by searching, but I won't be snooty about it. I'm sure you found the same thread already by using the search function, but I'll throw the link out there anyway. http://www.uer.ca/...d=23381&currpage=1 ~"We can't stop here!

Between this and trying to use my room key as a screwdriver (urbex, where else)... my dorm lock was very very testy by the end of the year.
