Cheap easy(cheazy) lock pick holder

Postby WolfSpring » 3 Sep 2009 23:27

I was thinking about a convieniet discrete basic lock pick holder for bug out bags, cars, everyday storage. I bought a set of pens thinking I could use the clips as short lentgh T wrenches adn they were so cheap they broke. Not the best pens either, but I noticed they were a little wider then the average pen and the width did not taper, they are Pentell Extra Fine superball pens and instead of a pen tube it has like a marker with the felt stuff in it. I removed that and i removed the "needle" that goes to the pen piont into the felt to get the ink. Filed down the end where the cap was so I could put my thumb nail in there. Not the best, and the tension wrench is very short, but I can get a twrench, diamon and hook pick in there. The pictures are not great, and my battery died on me I'll get some better later after I find a better tension wrench.:

Dude, that is beautiful. I've been experimenting with windshield wiper blades and making my own bogota picks recently and this post is making me want to make some "covert" style of picks too.
If a lock is a puzzle, then its key is the complete picture
