The Locksmith Security Association of Michigan

It's hard to believe that we already have one month of 2017 completed! Where did the time go? I am excited to see what this year will offer us as lock-smiths and security professionals. There is much to keep current with as this in-dustry changes each and every year. As far as LSA goes, we have many opportu-nities coming your way! We have many different education classes, as well as several different supplier trade shows coming up this spring. This is when we get a chance to see new products and have an opportunity to get our hands on the latest and greatest! There will even be a chance we will ask you to teach a class. I would like to thank those who came out to our meeting last month, as we had a good informative presentation on Detex products. I think we all walked away knowing that there were some products that we never knew existed. Thank you to Bockert & Associates for bringing them to us. Also, I wish to thank Mark Bick-

mann, CRL for bringing in key machines so many members could learn about key machines, and key cutting! I look forward to seeing many more of you at the next meeting as well as dis-cussing some of the up and coming opportunities for our members!

To follow is another page from the now defunct Locksmithing Institute of New Jersey Home Study Lock-

smithing Course, started by the late Leonard Singer (Master Keying Expert). The program went out of busi-ness in the early 1980s. This lesson excerpt is circa 1973 . Some illustrious graduates who are LSA members

include: Ray Sinai, Theo Schultz, Dan Meggison, Nick Palise, Tom Lewis and William Lynk, as well as

the notable Billy B. Edwards, Casey Camper and inventor John Ulaszek.
