Postby DDoyle » 1 Nov 2007 9:33

Can anybody help me with a bit of a problem I'm having.

I recentley bought a set of HPC picks (pip-2000) and have stupidly managed to break two of them (opps)

I've been looking all over the net to try and buy the two that I have broken but cannot find them as seperate picks, can only find them as the complete set.
Does anyone know where I would be able to get these from PLEASE..

You can order them individually from Foley-Belsaw. Go to www.foleybelsaw.com and request a catalog. These picks do not break easily, you must be using way to much pressure.

I didnt break them in a lock!
They had fallen onto the floor of my workshop while I was having a clearout, I found them on the floor afterwards all bent and twisted!!!

That will teach me to look after my tools in future.

Thanks for the link I will have a look....

If a lock is a puzzle, then its key is the complete picture

Before you pick a lock:
The first thing that you should do is check to make sure that
the lock is your's and secondly make sure its not in use.

Wrenchman has got it right.
Sorry about that it's obviously a British saying which means to Tidy up.

You did not say which picks were broken. Tell us the style, size, etc. in case we have extras laying around.

Were they really, really, badly broken or just twisted. (This is your opening for a joke line) How bad are they broken? ....
Nothing is foolproof to a talented fool. Wisdom is not just in determining how to do something, but also includes determining whether it should be done at all.
