They are the piece goso dimple pick set. It seems I screwed up with the link. I make another attempt, if it still not works: google it :)

I'd also recommend the 15 piece SouthOrd dimple set. Excellent kit.

The only downside I found to them was that the shafts are squared off along the length of the shaft, and so they were difficult to maneuver in restricted keyways. However, that was easily solved by sanding the edges of the shafts to round them off.

I've been thinking in doing that myself. But I'm afraid it'll weaken the shaft.. What do you think?


ANyway, even with the squared shaft, I find it a great purchase! I'm SOOO happy with mine :mrgreen:

Hay Filipe,

I didn't sand the whole of the shaft, but just the squared corners along the length of the shaft. It was no worries wrapping some sanding paper around a drill bit, putting the bit in the drill and then the drill in a vice. Switch on, and you can work with control. It worked well for me, and I don't find any weakness.

You can just do it on one of the flags to check it out if you want, but I find they're now much, much better to work with.
