Pick Question

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.

Pick Question

Postby skilless » 30 Jun 2005 6:08

This blue one any better?

I was asking about the black ones the other day but i dont think i can get them to work (size is very small).

Do you think i still need to take a little off the hook on the blue one, it is a little taller than the highest ridge on any of my keys?

Any other suggestions would be good (and yes i'll get a handle fixed when it works).

I'd say its too big to pick with, have a look round the site for some templates of picks, if you go to my site, I've scanned all my picks at full size, so print them out and they're actual size, then compare your pick to them.

Good luck!

Thanks man!

I have been looking (search was templates) but could not find any templates (must admit i only checked the first page of results) - sorry

Those will be a lot of help. Your pictures should be put into the FAQ it would save a lot of people who dont know anything like me from asking stupid stuff.

sorry this post is not in the corect place

It may have been better suited to the "Lockpicks - Manual" section, but a lot of people just use the "post since last visits" button anyway, so they see all the posts on the site.

If you want some templates have a look for zeke79's site, the address has something like nickz.homeunix in it, so have a search and see what you can find, you'll need the username and password too, its got tons of stuff on it that should help (or it did have last time I checked!).

Good luck,

:lol: No, my three-year old loves that movie and has a collection of heaps of other kids movies. I get some strange looks walking into work singing "Goofy Goober" from the Spongebob Squarepants movie. Or as my little one calls him, "Spongebob Swearpants" :D (can't quite get the Q sound yet) :)
