GIANT paperclips as pick material

[grimmy]

OK i'm new obviously. But I do have some advice. U can get giant over sized paper clips from like office depot or something like that. Those make decent picks when hammered down and filed right. And no i dont mean paper clips this big: --------------. U can get GOOD ones this big folded:-----------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to LP101! Good post, I never knew where to find the good paper clips. I need a few to make some clips that will always stay in my wallet. There's no way I would carry my good ones in there and risk loosing them. Please title the thread accordingly next time though.

I always wondered how well those jumbo paper clips would work as picks. Nice find.

Hmm..I must try

on one occasion I have used a q-tip for a pick. lol I took off the cotton off course. it was a cheesy wafer cabinet lock, but using a q-tip was a little challenging. gave a good laugh to those who were watching me.
