@alice@lgbtqia.space I came across my first love lock a few days ago. I'd seen it a few times, but wasn't carrying my tools. I finally remembered to bring them with me today only to find that the keyway seemed to be filled with some sort of glue?
Have you encountered this before? Is there any hope of non-destructive opening left? I imagine probably not (especially at my current skill level).
I'm clearly not the first person who's tried to open it. It's in pretty rough shape.

@me yeah, sometimes they're glued, or the key is broken off in them, or they're wrapped in duct tape. Those ones stay until they get cut off or rust away.
