Custom Cordura Pick Case

I haven't been here in a long time and a lot has changed since then but I still enjoy picking and examining locks and it sure made life much more interesting. So I thought this would be an appropriate way of saying hello, again.

NICE!
Go ahead, keep plugging away, picking on me! You will end up on bypass or with rigor mortise.

Very nice. Why are all the picks in upside down though? Sometimes I have a hard enough time finding the pick I want as it is. :mrgreen:

It's to prevent excess stress on the picks when taking them out. With the way the elastic band is holding them in and the way they're places it felt awkward and incorrect to have them otherwise. I've also been using this set for so long I know which ones are where.
