    I feel like I need someone to teach me in person. I’ve watched videos, read articles, I understand the science but can’t get the feel.

      Have you tried a clear practice lock to pick? You can watch the pins as you get the feel for it. Once you can pick it easily, cover it with painter’s tape so you can’t see the pins, and try again.

      It’s purely practice and persistence. No one can take that from you.

      I bought a bunch of locks from goodwill and took them apart down to the mechanism, just kept practicing until I got it down.
