Neighbor left his key in his car being a ford he knew i was into picking locks but unfortunately my tibbie pick is broken so went to my shed and looking for something to make a reach tool to reach the handle. Found some quite solid fencing wire and cut it to rough size to reach the handle and made a wedge from an off cut piece of timber and it worked after a bit of manipulation because the wire is a bit too flexy .......but job done

Nice job, alot of times you can't find anything strong enough to do that! You might want to consider buying a STECK big easy long reach set, comes with a paint protector, a plastic wedge, and the long reach. You can very easily get your money back in one or two lockouts. And they work sweet 90% of the time. Very nice way to improvise!

It's the spirit of improvisation that turns a "tech" into a true Smith. Well done, Bouncer.

Think i'll order a reach tool though ......handy to have and i need some practise with a real one too....cheers guys.
Re: My homebrew reach tool.
Pretty good idea to get two air wedges. Sometimes, one is just less than enough to get the tool in.

I agree with the two wedges, I only use one of the regular size ones, and a variety of hard wedges, I think if a guy had one regular air wedge and one of those wide ones as well, I think that it would work great.

I just picked up a medium-sized air wedge at the TLA convention expo this last weekend. Also, couldn't resist the Accu-reader for the GM-Z.
