My Take on the Sharpie Pick Set Idea
So naturally when I saw the Sharpie pick pen designs that are floating around here and on the other site, one of my first thoughts was "how cool would it be if it looked even more like a Sharpie" and once the thought was thunk I had to make it reality.
What I came up with was pretty much a dumbed down version of the designs I have seen. Swapping the Xacto vice tip for the added facade of the cut down (& hallowed out) cartridge (messy job if you don't do it right). Then the problem was just designing some picks to fit but are still relatively comfortable in the hand and quieting the rattle.
[I have to admit that at first I was a little worried about posting this; thinking it might come to abuse. However (like some of you have said elsewhere in the forum) I then thought about how long my road to learning lock picking and making half way decent picks has already been, and I (also) don't think anyone with sketchy motives would put in so much effort when there are much easier ways around locks]
So without further adieu here is the first attempt at the concept...
First time sewing... I now know I hate sewing! Ouch! But slide this over the picks and they sleep all cosy and quiet-like.
I know the picks aren't the best. They were just some early homebrew attempts that I didn't mind sacrificing to the project.
