Very nicely done Ray! Nice pink n retire! Nothing wrong with just admiring it!

[@PocketWomen]

This is such a beautiful padlock. The chain just makes it that much more special, cheers

[@W3OY-RAY]

Thanks a lot… it now gets to live on the shelf until it moves to its next owner.

nice Sargent lock, great picking, I have a few Sargent's, padlocks and mortice cylinders. have a great day

[@W3OY-RAY]

You too. Thanks for watching.

[@ParkysPlace]

Picked with skill. Retired with honor. Perfect. 😎🖖

[@W3OY-RAY]

Thanks Parky! They’re old and all still functional, it would be a shame for that to change on my watch.

[@SeeStuDo]

You really do have a perfect time broadcast voice.

[@W3OY-RAY]

Well, thank you. I am an amateur radio operator… but do spend most of my time using Morse code 🤣 And I finally bought a dirt cheap microphone… bad enough that I clip it to my hat so I don’t brush up against it and make anyone’s ears bleed 😳

@@W3OY-RAY You run a numbers station? 🤣

[@W3OY-RAY]

@@SeeStuDo nope… I chase DX… rare, long distance contacts, 10,000 miles+. W3OY is my call sign. I like it more than my name so it stuck.

@@W3OY-RAY that's nuts level cool

[@W3OY-RAY]

@@SeeStuDo thanks. I don’t do hobbies halfway 🤣

[@Key_Beard]

I have the same one and know what you mean about retiring it. Nice open!

[@W3OY-RAY]

I can almost “sense” the brass getting chewed away by the pry bar. Moki’s don’t even have any teeth.

[@Lockjunkie]

Nice open as well homie 👌 👍 👏 🙌

[@W3OY-RAY]

Appreciate it

[@Lockjunkie]

@W3OY-RAY Of course my friend 🫡
