February 19 The Curious Case of Locks

It is fascinating to see a really old lock, or a primitive lock from another country, and realize we haven't traveled far since. In their copious free time, many have taken up recreational lock picking to puzzle out these small machines. Tonight Kenny McElroy, of The Open Organization Of Lockpickers, provides a guided tour of locks, door locks, padlocks, handcuffs, combination locks and more. There will be hands-on opportunities for you to best these beasts. The most effective security is an awareness of its limitations, and this is a great opportunity to learn about these weak, but just strong enough machines. A presentation of the Curiosity Club, you can tune into the free live webcast off the Core77 site or visit the talk and demonstration in person at Hand Eye Supply www.handeyesupply.com/pages/curiosity-club 23 NW 4th 6PM Free
