If anyone has any fairly simple ideas i can draw, please email me!
Here is an example of an drawing:
P.s. I am aware of patent problems, but this design is simple, and anyone could think of it, not to mention that this design has big flaws...

I dont know what supplier to contact, but i know that it is possible to get just the "stock" so you can get a big supply of all one thickness. Sorry I cant do better than that.

I have used many 3d CAD (Computer Aided Design) programs, and decided Solidworks 2004 was the one for me, it is so nice to use! It also has the default rendered background which is good to see drawings on rather than a white background, as some of the white sides of the drawing tend to disappear into the background.

i do not understand the whole "computer generated picks" thing. What does that mean? also, what sizes of feeler guages can you use for picks? (from what to what?)
Also, is there any chance you can make the pics on your site smaller and the width of a page so no side scrolling is neccessary lockpickroy? I am just suggesting this, as it very hard to view your awsome pictures

The configurations of these picks were designed on a computer to conform to the greatest amount possible of 5 & 6-pin and disc tumbler curve configurations. I use .018 to .032
Also im sorry for the images I don’t know how to fix it is there a shareware or freeware program I can use?
The modified handle image = A homemade clicker with a larger handle for comfort

by configurations, do you mean the width of the picks, or the design of them?
Is this done on a certain software?

Technic this is for you i seen on another therad you was asking about more info on computer generated picks this is the best i can do @ security.org i searched the infobase and found this
LOCKS, SAFES, AND SECURITY Text Search Results Record: 300 Chapter_Section: 29_4.3 Figure 29-05. Rocker picks are designed to match the signature of the bitting pattern for a particular tumbler combination. By manipulation within the keyway, many different signatures can be simulated. This set of rocker picks was computer generated in Israel for HPC. Rocking open a Lock with Computer..... Generated Rake Patterns..... A slightly modified approach to raking employs specially designed picks in a process called rocking. The procedure is different than raking in that each pick in a series or set has a carefully designed signature of varying depth simulations...... Rocker picks are not, strictly speaking, rake picks although there are some design similarities. They are often complex in shape and generally double-sided......

And if there is any software for you to design your own picks, my guess is the answer is NO. I recieved some PMs on this topic. BTW the software lockpickroy was refering to (if i can repeat) is software to resize or modify the jpg/gif images on his website.
Consider me inactive or lurker.

Have a picture!
Bit of info someone gave me:
The procedure for this type of bypass requires that a pick be inserted fully into the keyway, then lifted and rocked in a vertically angled motion while applying torque. The theory is that at some point, random motion of the pick and the selected bitting pattern of the tool will lift each tumbler to shear line. Both sides of the pick should be utilized; light tension is recommended.
HPC and other vendors produce rocker picks. The HPC Israeli designed series (HPC COMP-1) contains nine picks within the set and simulate various tumbler combinations, determined from computer modeling. These picks can be quite effective for opening certain locks.
