I finally put handles on my windsheild wiper picks!

I did a variation of wiz's video on how to do it. I couldn't find the stuff with the glue, so I got the normal stuff. It worked great! Also, I got the cheap stuff without the slits on the bottom and it still worked! No more blistered fingers for me!

Nice, I need to do that to some of my home brew picks... and is that a twist flex added to one of your picks?

Yeah, I threw in my tension wrenches b/c my set is so small. I tried it out on the tension wrench in the middle to see if it would work for me.

No I meant the two picks on the left... they have a twist in em. What's with that?

The twist helps you rake a little bit better - because instead of pinching your thumb and forefinger together (with the back of your hand facing up) by putting a twist in the handle - you'll turn the back of your hand 180 degrees toward the front.

The broad side of the pick handle is now horizontal - allowing it to rest more easily along the inside of the first joints of your fingers. It's a little easier to rake.

In other words, your pick is vertical - but your handle is horizontal.

Thanks!
