Thought I'd send a quick reply before anyone else gets to you.

I don't live in Ireland but I suspect devonlocks.com will send you their picks, as will multipick.

I would suggest you use the search icon towards the top of the page for some of the other sites, and any other questions you have. Most have already been answered somewhere on here before.

Of course, you could also try making your own, but I struggled to get the right dimensions until I'd actually seen someone elses picks.

All the best

Spoilsport. :lol:

heaslip: If you haven't done so already, look in the FAQ's & General Information section. As a new member, in there you will find answers to pretty much any question you may have. :wink:

The search function is pretty good too.

Tri Circles are full of spools and combined with the
poor machine tolerances, makes them (for me) a
bit of a pr**k to open.

Use really light tension. REALLY LIGHT.

I believe that SouthOrd.com may ship internationally...
