My Demented First Pick Thread

When it comes down to it there is nothing better than manual tools for your Lock pick Set, whether they be retail, homebrew, macgyver style. DIY'ers look here.

I had superior ambitions organized for the quality of this post so I apologize in advance and hope this suffices. Hope you all enjoy my post.

Why not just save up that allowance $$ and buy good picks?

I most likely will at some point, but I really enjoy crafting my own picks. Since I'm just a novice my Southord MPXS-14 fairs fine for me now. I haven't started designing picks yet, but it's an aspiration of mine and I've got some concepts up my sleeve that I'm looking to experiment with. I have been purchasing tools one by one that my wallet can afford right now. Actually yesterday I just received my first Peterson Pry Bar and set of warded picks.
