Case for raimundo pick set

by **h3x1lu2** » 25 Apr 2006 17:57

anybody got any case ideas for raimundos bagota picks? i am worried they will break or bend in my pocket without something a lil more substantial around them...ideas?

Hmm... the metal mint cases Raimundo ships them in might work... Altoids I think they are called. They are quite small, would be compact enough, and yet would provide decent protection.

You will likely have to have some boney legs or be contorted oddly in a car accident to bend raimundos picks beyond use.. :wink:

just use highlighter pens(like Faber Castell). Empty it, removing all its contents, and close the tap on the top used for refilling.

Cut the tip and use the head piece to put and remove your picks.

You can glue some rubber in the inside of the pen to protect your picks.

If they're lying flat in your pocket, I cannot imagine how you'd break them, unless maybe you had something else in the pocket that managed to press against them wrong.

im just a bit activ and really...if i, let's say, trip...don't wanna land on them wrong and have them stab me in the leg...perhaps just keeping them in my wallet would do the trick

I have already prepared myself a pick case ready for when my picks are finished.

A slimline CD case with the insert taken out and replaced with foam.

A good idea mate, and it will look pretty cool too. I've broken countless CD cases though, so you might want to protect the case itself somehow.
