steve0527 Pick Thread

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.

Awesome, I like the super polished picks in the primitive looking handles. Artzy. Isn't the clay kinda to fagile to be practical though? Just a question, not a criticism.

Its not like regular clay I could throw it at a wall and it wont even chip its not really clay its more like a very hard plastic type clay. When you harden it it gets rock hard a strong as a rock. Buy some and try it. its like $4.
