Ok well after having fun with the keyring pick...

The keyboard pick?

I notice it's detachable though...

[Chucklz]

Now, i want to know where to get a keyboard that has mu as an added character! (not to mention a non qwerty keboard at that)

[Hak]

Lol, now i that look at it more closely..that keyboard is a bit 'funky'

[thertel]

That reminds me of a keyboard for pirates. notice the "Alt Gr" button...bet that makes typing "GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" much faster.

Maybe he just pulled all the letter caps off the keyboard and then didn't get them all back on right.

lol.. that's a german keyb ripped out of an ancient compaq notebook.. currently trying to figure out ways to use it with the pc, but the mylar's matrix doesn't seem to be standard so i'd have to make a custom controller for it, which I don't really want to do

ancient compaq notebook

Heh, whats an ancient compaq notebook? Lol the first thing that came to my mind was an image of ancient mesopotamian civilizations using a compaq computer

468 SX 25.. well okay it's not ancient.. Have a Zenith 8086 laptop around here somewhere.. that's ancient this was just plain old

*note to self.. copper is not a suitable material for lockpicks*

That's actually a pretty sweet looking pick =) , bleh, my hacksaw blade picks are so ugly *sigh*

[Jerbz]

Yeh that is one of the nicer looking picks . A lot of the hack saw blade ones arent very err pretty . Nice looking rubber handle . Does it actually work? Coz it looks pretty rough, does it glide into the lock smoothly? Or with a little force?

thanks well the handle's a piece of plastic, they include with some cheap compass sets.
It works smoothly but it's too flexible because it's made of copper.. In the end I decided to buy a southord set.. well at least I tried my own before I did that I'll be reupping the pics as soon as photobucket rebuilds my album.. (they had an hdd crash and my album was "lucky" enough to have died along with it)

[Jerbz]

lol yeh. copper isnt the best material to make picks with . Good luck with further attempts at making picks, as i have read but yet to experience, making your own picks is just as fun as picking the locks
