Planning to make homemade Multipick

Postby Paleo123 » 26 Mar 2014 22:35

So I have recently been made aware of the Multipick which retails for like $2000 (Canadian) and I want to attempt to make an electric pick gun that will work as well offering the same capabilities(frequency adjustment, changeable pick tips, and throw control) minus the ability to save preset frequencies. I had a game plan all sorted out, it was going to be rough and dirty, I had planned on starting with wired hair clippers and wiring in a dimer switch(rheostat) which would allow me to adjust frequency and if you were so inclined a car battery and an inverter and you are mobile because I don't really care about that aspect of it I was going to skip that part as I cannot seem to find my inverter anywhere :?: :evil: and its not worth $50 for me just to prove I could leave the house with it while sitting at my desk. I still think this is a solid plan however hair clippers operate around 150hz Id say I could tweak the throw(shorten wavelength) and voltage to the motor and maybe get 250hz or 15000 vibrations/min. The Multipick is claiming 44000. I would like to know if that is true any info would be greatly appreciated. I have been looking in to eccentric motors all day and I just can't see how they would be getting that high of numbers that's 733hz. I am now thinking I might need to modify a cheap rotary tool that is capable of 35000rpm instead of hair clippers. Input much appreciated

I remember back in the early 90's a "new" lockpicking tool was being advertised. It had replaceable
heads and depending on which lock you wanted to pick, you would use the appropriate head. It was even supposed to pick Medeco locks with it's magical two-part action, which both raised the tumblers & turned them. Pre-orders were being taken, if only you could cough up enough money. Several months later the entire thing was labeled a scam and many folks lost the money they had pre-paid for this fantastic story of an automatic lock pick.

Your homemade tool sounds neat & I hope you can make it work.

My Dad thought it was too funny that all the pre-payers, well he likes to call them Suckers, got fleeced. Anyhow in 25 years I have only been called upon to open 5 or so real hi security locks and there is more than one way to get into a house.

The old Jeep style jacks were pretty good, too. :D

You can find cheap electric pick guns on Chinese wholesale websites with a dozen or more picks that come with them : dimple picks, standard pin picks and weird claw like picks that I have no idea what kind of lock that would be used for. ALSO they have a attachment to make it a drill, which I think is funny.
