I'm looking for anyone who has a lockpicking house set up to train the skill. If you know of one please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Hrm... If I could figure out how to set one up I would. Or I would have someone else do it. *Asks around*

There was a house somewheres in the desert in Malas (I found it while wandering around a few years back) but I'm unsure if its still there.

As for setting up a training area, here's information from UOGuide:

Training
0 - 30: Train at NPC Thief or Tinker.
After 30 skill, you must either create your own boxes, or use a lockpicking house. You need one box of each type, that you pick and lock over and over again. If you stop gaining, you need to move on to the next box.

30 - 50: Pick locked boxes made by 50 skill Tinkerer.
50 - 70: Pick locked boxes made by 70 skill Tinkerer.
70 - 95: Pick locked boxes made by 100 skill Tinkerer.
After 95 skill there are 2 different ways to reach Grandmaster.

Method 1: Pick level 4 treasure chests in dungeons or do level 4 Treasure Maps.
Method 2: Go to Twisted Weald, attack a Satyr, and lure it over near the sparkling entrance/exit teleporter. Leave through this teleporter, re-enter, and then attack the Satyr. You must repeat these three steps until you are under the effect of its Discordance. When your skills drop jump into the sparkle teleporter and start picking boxes. When your skills return to normal repeat the process. You should reach Grandmaster in a few hours.
Addendum: After being discorded, leave via the sparkle and come immediately back in. The Satyr will no longer target you, but as long as you stay close to him you will stay discorded forever. Be careful, as sometimes the pixies will remain aggressive toward you. Just keep going in and out via the sparkle until you are both discorded and nothing is aggressive toward you.
For further explanation of this see Satyr Trick.
This trick can also used to create a 70 skill box with a Grandmaster Tinker.

I've got a lock picking house that was at one time open to the public. I can open it up for you this weekend if you like. The house is in Malas, just shoot me a pm if your interested and we can work out a meeting to get you a rune. Otherwise its a long long run south from Luna, across all those island bridges to the last one on the bottom left. The house is called The Spelunker's association or something like that. I'm at work and can't remember the full name off the top of my head.....
