My homemade pick

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.

vinyl, plasticy stuff, also called lino or linoleum (dunno how to spell that one!), my uncles a carpet fitter so i know what you mean. we've got it in our bathroom, its been there like 20years, this place needs decorating!!

*tip* get a big roll of lino stuff, unroll it so you've got a masive area of it, then slide on it :D brilliant fun if you're a little kid! :lol:

surely you mean a loving and respectful replica pick which pays homage to the fine design of raimundo's picks, not a "rip off" :shock:
and i would seriously consider coloured handles, i find it very easy to find the right pick quickly using my coloured handle system :D

Bah!... man i love those picks. But my replica wont be even be close to the beautiful raimundo picks. Raimundo you should be proud. But when i will make a remake i will not be having the same handles i will have normal handles of my homemade picks just with the head shaped like ray's picks.
