Alrighty.. well this is the last set I am making to be sold becuase my hands hurt.. and I have to much going on to accomodate all the orders. So here they are PM me, I will leave the last set as an Offer kinda deal, if theres no takers, then no biggie :o :lol:

I went all out, did full knife grips on each polish and rounded handels, and balanced them... incase you need to throw them :lol: but yea did that just for show I guess. Set hase a loop flexed? tensioner, and a ICcore tensioner and a double sided serrated tensioner, which wouldbe perfect.. except i slipped and made a small scratch.. yea well life not always good for tensioners.

Burnished the handels, and finished them with white grips. And There ya have it the final set.

Noone is to use the pictures without my personal concent, and Enjoy!

Those are some great picks. :)

It might be worth making the tangs on some of the picks thinner to better cope when confronted with a tight keyway? I would have thought there would be plenty of strength regardless, and it'd be easier to move around in para centric keyways.

I do like thick picks because it gives a less fiddly feeling whilst picking, but the versatility of the slimline picks wins me over to be honest.

Anyhoooo... Good job. :wink:

Instead of starting another review thread I decided to add more here.

I got LockNewbies custom made medeco rake pick and just finally got a chance to try them out. I have to say I am pretty impressed. The $30 for this thing was worth it.

The craftsmanship of this tool is amazing, looks like a commercially made tool. The mirror finish of the pick ends are real nice and overall a great pick that does what it is supposed to.

So far I'm up to three pins in my five pin medeco biaxial lock and I am very happy with it. Thanks LockNewbie for the pick. Keep us up to date on any new high security picks you come up with in the future.

I am gonna second that. I just got my set from LockNewbie21. Up until then, I had been working with a small set from HPC. I think HPC is pretty widely regarded as a decently made pick. However, the feedback I get from LockNewbie's picks is AMAZING!!! These are top-notch picks. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Thanks LockNewbie for the great service and the amazing quality tools! Please keep up the good work. I look forward to my skills advancing to the point where I can buy some of your Medeco picks from you.

Looks like a rocker pick for cars or double sided wafer locks.

Thoese are for Advanced locks, they were blurred so the set could be shown.

As for sets, I have stopped making large sets except for special request. Smaller 2-4 picksets are fine.

Just Pm me, as the threads for just showin my work thanks fella's.

Well that's about the size set of your picks I was looking for to add to my collection. I'll contact you in the near future for a small set.

Superb work! Excellent quality. :D
