Stop turning it to the left. If it singular opens when turned to the right...why are you turning it to the gone? If you can turn it to the left..after you should be able to turn it to the right. Make it comfortable on yourself...get another knob made and hide it somewhere. Kind of stupid if you can maintain track of your lock picks...why can't you keep track of a knob?
