#2

Get a 5.8 machine screw and two wing nuts. Insert the first one all the way through and the second one just right into the tip of the screw. Place them in the center of the padlock and its handle and using pliers, gently turn the handle and the wing nut alternately till the padlock unlocks.

#3

Get a small piece of thin metal, wrap it around the handle of the padlock to get its shape, then solder a bit of iron on its inner part. Insert this at the edge of the keyhole using a hammer and the lock mechanism will be pushed out.

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
