Recently went on travels and lost the key to two padlocks that secure my bags. One, while trying to attack the padlock, broke the zipper and I don't want that to happen to the second one. I tried 'picking' the lock and soldering the round bit off, no luck.

drill the lock out. pilot drill first then use a drill with a diameter bigger than the tumbler, use a pair of vice grips to secure the lock while you drill

Secure it (in a vice for example), then put a very long rigid bar (like a narrow crowbar) into the arch of the padlock and lever it open.
