They look good - you need to do a video showing how good they work.

Re: Homemade credit card picking set

It's a nicely made set, very clean and there is a good selection there. They can't be too comfy though lol... I keep a half diamond made from a wiper insert in my wallet for emergencies; I doubled up the end to serve as a kind of handle and I gotta say it's not the comfiest. Good control though, which is the main thing I guess. I like the ones you made, and I know comfort isn't really important since they're for emergencies and all, but still... can't have too much control without some kind of handle. Looking forwardt o the vid though, no doubt you'll prove me wrong! :mrgreen:

Re: Homemade credit card picking set

Nice set, especially for a quick knockout like that! But geeze... Publix even with the card is WAY overpriced.

You should search Locksmitharmy's posts for a picture of his laminated holder. It was quite the clever idea. But don't use sticky lamination plastic sheet, you gotta use heat lamination.
