Some picks I made a while back

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.

Some picks I made a while back

Postby Artkrp » 23 Apr 2009 0:39

These aren't exactly "new" but here they are. They are almost an exact copy of LockNewbies Style, Just as a convenience until I decide what to do as my own style. Thanks for the inspiration LN! The Rake is kind of over the top :? , But the hooks are great!! I will post more pick photo's once I make some more. Hopefully by then they will be in my OWN style :wink:

Very nice. Are the handles plastic or rubber? I'm gonna get myself a dremel and some hacksaw blades some time so I can make a bunch of new stuff... all you guys on here making your own are making me jealous; I have to give it a go for myself. :mrgreen:

The handles are just heat-shrink, the picks are made from wiper inserts.

Those look very nice. I'm going to try the heat shrink tubing for the handles on some of my picks. That is a great idea.
