How to become a Locksmith and start up a Small Business?

Can anyone help me with any advise on:





A locksmiths average earnings?





What Tools do I Need?





What type of training do I need? Or can you just research the knowledge via Manuals and The internet, are there any online courses?





Any, any information or guidance would be very much appreciated?

Google locksmiths. One site that you'll come up with is the UK Locksmiths' Association. There's information on training and setting up.
