Nice work!
Just when you finally think you have learned it all, that is when you learn that you don't know anything yet.

what did you use for the feelers, and what does the thumbscrew adjust?

Beautiful work, mate.

Does it work well for you?

Could you post a picture looking straight into the front of the pick?

Cheers,

Alex

All the screw does is mount the pick on to other handles. You see the Pick end of the is about 2 inches long with a hole drilled into the back end of it. Kind of imagine a 1 and a half piece of flat steel with a hole through it. I did this so I could use a variety of handles or a 8,10&11 pin pick, making them interchangeable.
