My Dimple Pick Handles

[kamikaze]

Hi Guys,
I wanna show you my Idea of my latest Dimple Pick Handles.
They´re out of full Aluminium,and complete selfmade.
It took me a lot of work to make this handles.
What do you think?
The round one is for SPP,and the other is a self-Designed Dimple-Rake.

Looks great man!!!!! What is the diameter on the handles???

[kamikaze]

The Diameter is 11,5 mm.
It´s the same Diameter as i Bought it in an Ironware-Store.
The Length is 85 mm.
I drilled a 3mm hole in the Middle and make two M 3 Threads Ahead
to fix the Pick.

Very, very nice...I like it.

Thank´s !!!
It looks good, but i wanna do it better.
i´m looking for a cheap way to Anodize the Aluminium Handles
and to engrave it with my Nickname.
to be continued....

Real nice job kamakaze, I can see some new designs coming up in the near future.

Super awesome.. They look beautiful and not overdone.. Form and Function these win in my book. Keep it up.

Nice work there! Those handles are sweet! How do you get along with those dimple rakes? I don't know of too many folks that really have much good to say about them, and I haven't really had much luck with them either personally.

I Think that is because the Keyways in America are often Large and in Europe the most are very tight Keyways.
I Think those Picks for SPP are very good ones, because you have a very good Feedback in those tight Keyways.
With the Dimple-Rake in the Pic, i´m Able to Rake an Abus EC 750 for some Times in about 15 Seconds.
And with the same Rake i´m able to get an Abus XP 2 S in the Big False -Set in less then 30 Seconds.
I can write more later, but now i drive to work...
Kind Regards,Marco.
