I Issue a Pick making Challenge!

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.

Working on getting my submission tools ready. My 2 year old has been hindering the progress.

You *did* have to (as we needed to do testing on it to see how well it worked and such), however this pick making contest is now over. All that remains is to tabulate the results and report the status. Then as per the original posts (if you bothered to read back when this thread first started), the picks will be sold for Zeke.

I have been informed that the picks arrived safe and sound. Again - sorry for the long delay in all of this, sorry for skipping out in the middle. I'll catch you cats later on :)

I think he means the contest takes 18 months. But he's exaggerating, this one is only been going on for about 8 months and personally I think it could be over before it hits 18 months. :wink:

i get off work at 9 am... its now 3:40pm oh and i go to work at 9pm... grr i miss 2 much sleep

it took me forever to get thru all these posts and i still dont have an answer on who won...

im really considering starting a new contest with a 2 month creation window and a 2 week judging time...

with all the new people and the same great old ones we could have a great contest.

just a quick tally if any one would participate on 1 with a promised end... like an actual date 10 weeks from the beginning. then ill c what i can do for judging and whatnot if enough people would participate
