you could also cut down a key to make the picks. the dimensions are on the outside of the laminated lock, one version has two laminations between the one lam thick cross pieces and the other version has three laminations between the onelamthick cross pieces. the nub on the tip is unnecessary. you can cut it off if you like. but you will have to take one of the locks apart to see where the springs are. most of the cross bits on a key are just there to catch the wards in locks its not made for, you can just make two cross pieces at two lams spacing near the tip of the key and use it as a pick. cross pieces should pass in the space of one lamina
