That's crazy. Does he come around anymore? The Abridor style picks are nice. Easy to make, easy to use. Music wire. I've seen a few from bike spokes that were good, and some from nice umbrella's that are ok too.

Re: Different Pick handle

I always liked watching crazy's vids. I couldn't understand him, of course, but that guy has some crazy skill opening locks, pardon the pun. Truly a damn good picker. - And yeah that always has been his pick of choice really, that style anyway.

Re: Different Pick handle

Interesting... I might have to make a few like that and see how they feel... it looks like it would be fairly comfortable, and I bet the feedback is good too.

Re: Different Pick handle

It's getting the square bend right that's the tricky part.

Re: Different Pick handle

I got some piano wire yesterday and made some like these. i wont even post a pick trhey were terrible, i found it hard to get the bends on the buisness end small enough. i did manage to pick my 'feel good' amtech padlock with them (but then again i think i picked it with harsh language once). And you're right the handle ends are hard to get right, i ruined a couple at that stage, still pleanty more wire left to practice on.

FYI i used 17.5 guage piano wire and found it a bit too springy, reducing feedback. Anyone considering piano wire might want to go with a heavier guage.
