My first picks

[Pedro123]

Here is my first set of picks. Is there anything missing or should I make any changes. Been trying them out for a while but it isn't much better than the hairpin I used before. Might be lack of talent, though.

Mostly been picking small padlocks. Any pick especially good for that?

Very nice first set, congrats! Only thing I would advice was sanding the picks smooth, like start with 220 or 240 grit, then 320, 400 and if you have the will, 600 grit After this your picks start to shine and are not cutting the internals of the locks you pick, so they last longer and the picks will give more feedback from the lock

very well done!

That is really well done. If you dont enlarge the picture you would think you were looking at a commercially made set.

look nice

They definitely look nice.

2 suggestions though


1. Sand them all to make them shiny (I like shiny =P and it gives better feedback)

2. On the double sided rake you may want to thin the area down after the "head" of the rake so you can get the whole rake into the lock.
