I think I know what your laughing at Skold. I have never impressioned an abloy, but what I was referring to is a page in a book I read by Steve Hampton called Modern High Security Locks: How to Open Them. But apparently it was a load of crap :!: http://www.lockpicking101.com/viewtopic.php?t=415&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=75

Oh well. Guess it wasnt worth the 14 Bucks I paid for it.

I noticed you had a comb pick in there - you don't see a whole lot of those around. You're going to need a few of them made at different dimensions. It's a crude set, not too pretty, but it looks like the result of a lot of hard work and experementation. Your picks should work well.

All are handmade. Simple.

Perhaps some may be handmade copies of Computer Generated Picks though...

Compact Pick Design

Having pretty much made all the picks I could want, ATM, I have redirected my efforts at making picks as small and functional as possible. I believe this may be RELATIVELY unique. Feel free to flame.
