Very nice. The picks look good and I really like those handles.

+1. Love them. Would be curious about the spring feedback from those thick handles though.

Are you planning on putting any of them up for sale?

Heres another pickmaker, with new handles and a good hand at cutting the metal, I didn't notice anything about his technique mentioned, but maybe I was only scanning the photos.

The particular handle shapes such as on the yellow set are very interesting, notice that the area where the thumb n forefinger grip the pick is wider. Thats a good touch. I really like the yellow set.

this guys an artist,

He should inspire some more of you to start making your own.

You will be able to make that special pick when you need one. like a long reach or long shaft or whatever you need.

Thank you for the kind words. The yellow set handles really nice. I tried like 5 different handle styles and I like this one the best. I work at a woodworking shop and some metal stuff. So I do all the work at work and get paid for it lol. I work afternoons, so its just me and 1 other guy, in a huge shop with every tool you could dream off. I will also post a step by step guild to making my picks with pictures.

Thanks..

The feedbacks amazing 10 times better than my southord set.
And yes i will be putting some up for sale but if you want a set you need to design the handles what ever shape you want i will make the rest.

Aight, can't see the pictures at work due to our network security, but i'm game, how much is a set going to set me back with whatever handles you so happen to suprise me with?

It all depends on how many you want and the type of handles you want. PM me for the cost and how many you want.
