Nice work man! I love seeing other people making picks. What did you use for the handles?

Heat shrink tubing x2, than a rustoleum enamel spray that had a sand like texture, takes forever to dry and Im about to test them out to see if they peel easily.

Looking on this forum today is tempting me to try aluminum or wooden handles. I have been trying to find handles that are not a hit or miss type deal. Im thinking wooden. Most everyones picks they make here including yours are inspiring for sure man!

Very Nice. They look quite effective.
What metal did you use?
Making picks is nearly as addictive as picking locks.
Keep the pictures coming.

steel fishing tape, I have some feeler gauge stock coming in this weekend and no more grinding the picks to a certain thickness so tedious on a bench grinder or even hand files.
