Those picks are so professional looking that it makes professional picks look homemade. Very nice!

Got that right, this guy just upped the pick making standard by several notches and some!

Truly awesome work, I'm on the list :-)

beautiful picks

Postby raimundo » Wed Oct 01, 2008 9:40 pm

They are of course works of art, but I wish you would not copy the southord type of halfdiamond that has a picktip that raises only about a third of the the thickness of the shaft at the tip. You can thin the shaft and raise the pick tip above it that way without making the picktip too large.

Thats just my opinion, don't take it as too critical please, your handles are beautiful

I think I will do that since someone else suggested the same thing to me yesterday. How much more metal do you think I should remove from the shaft?
