My friend decided to buy a couple of lock picks today and i told her i'd send her a tension wrench. Since i finally found my dremel attachments last night and i have a lot of wiper inserts laying around i decided to bash out a backup pick for her aswell, and here's the results....

I experimented with a few cutting wheels and used a small handfile. i finished it with 600, 800, and 1200 sandpaper, then used Brasso with the dremel for a final polish. then added a little heatshrink for grip in the middle.

I picked an American 1100 and SKS Active just to make sure it was functional. It's a little hard to hold cos it's so narrow and it's a little too flexible for my liking, but all in all i'm happy with it. I look forward to making more soon.
