When it comes down to it there is nothing better than manual tools for your Lock pick Set, whether they be retail, homebrew, macgyver style. DIY'ers look here.

I don't want to offend but you could have posted this in to a thread about paperclip picks and also you could have waited before making this topic until you would have had the pictures. It is the best to post pics together with the opening post, so the thread becomes interesting from the start than just to comment something and say that I'll be back with the pics.

That said, I'll wait for the pictures but I have to say that once you've seen a paperclip pick, you've seen 'em all ;)
