My Picks!

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.

Very cool, I have a little update on my picks, this is the set I made for Jenova, Its all made from plumbing snake and I fallen in love with the stuff, its strong, easyer to grind/shape and it doesnt wear down the wheels on a grinder/dremel as fast as hacksaw blades....Enjoy 8)

Hojo, I like that pick to the very right. Is that something you just made up, or does it have a name?

Hey everyone! I fell off the face of the earth for a bit but I've expanded my home made collection since I was last here.

Image

The picture is a little fuzzy but from left to right the picks are as follows: Sharp half diamond
Half diamond
Half round
Hook
Feeler
and the straight pick

My tension wrenches are made out of small screw drivers and a 4 penny nail.

My favorite happens to be the middle tension wrench, my half diamond, and half round.
