Has anyone heard of the King and Queen Pick

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.

Man, this thread is like the zombie that refuses to die! :wink:

They look good so far Dmux. They aren't supposed to be rakes exactly, but to be honest, they do work fairly well that way too.

I honestly wish I could take credit for the original King and Queen. I can't.

They were originally designed in Britain by someone else.

I have since expanded the idea, and I am almost ready to post templates of the new "Royal Family" that are similar to the King and Queen.

I have a few other unique picks that will eventually see posting on here.

I look forward to seeing the new templates. I know this new set will be revolutionary in design and use.
Have a Great Day !

My Dremel finally died. It bit the biscuit a few days ago. I let all the smoke out, and now it won't run. I've also discovered that the bloody things seem to have gotten more expensive. What a right royal pain that is.

I know what you mean about making tools. It has to be one of my all time favorite things. When I finally get a few free moments, I am going to finish a batch of new electric picks, and make a few new picks I have been thinking on. Going to finish the final prototypes of the Royal Family and see how they come out.

I've asked Santa for a few new tools. Maybe I'll get a new Dremel kit. :wink:

First you were hinting at santa about a photo camera, and now it's a dremel.
You're making the bloke poor. :lol:

Tim, you are an ego trip man. Thanks.

I wish it were revolutionary. Sadly, it's just an extension on an idea.

I will be releasing the template as soon as I have a final set made. I debated releasing the template at all, but I figure its just a matter of time before someone copies them, so I might as well let them do it with teh proper sizes.

Yeah, I know. My kid made me poor this year, so I'm just passing it along. :lol:

Man, kids are expensive.

I keep getting asked if I am going to make any videos, and I don't have a DV camera. Just a plain digital that doesn't do video.

The Dremel I will most likely pick up after Christams when the sales are one. Maybe get one of the kits they put on sale with a bunch of accessories.

Merry Christmas.
