"Great ideas sometimes come easy, & surprisingly, they are in front of us..but we haven't notice them" Yono
Raimundo's tutorial of how to make a Bogota picks was very very impressive.& w/ 1/16" x 1/8" x 12" steel wire, i make mine.I search for handle, & one fellow"s ingeniouty..a spring wound arround in clip pin, is practically useful. then i think, how to do it my way.Here's my simple contribution to the good guys works.The HANDLE
1. THE SPRING-from a snap-on(battery charger)cable jumper handgrip.
2. THE SMALL BAR-from an electrical switch-connector
when i assembled it for the handle, great things i found out. The handle seems universally adaptable, & adjustable too.not only to my Bogota's pick but any wire picktools application,positioning. & with finger inserted in the ring the control is great. Either side of the spring is usable.As long as your p.toolcould be inserted in the connector and fastened together w/ the handle. Thanks to Raimundo, I have a new different p.tool & handle.(I picked another practice Sargent cyl. in less than 3 mins. w/ my new Bogota & bypass pick combined.) HERE are the PICTURES for those who would be interested.
