- Inspired by entering @terrybpickin9941 pick design competition I got back to making some dimple picks. I raised the question some time ago that while many people seemed to make custom pin tumbler picks there didn't seem many people making custom dimple picks with nice wooden handles so decided to have a go and bought myself a mini lathe and some files. since then I have started these TH-cam videos so thought I would document the process that I have learned while teaching myself wood turning and metal work.

Amazing craftsmanship, I cant wait for part 2!!! What a gift you have for making picks.
Brilliant work.
I too loved metalwork and woodwork at school in the 1970's. Made a scroll coffee table in metalwork and a chessboard square table in woodwork. Still going strong in 2024. Wow 50 years of use. Congratulations on your masterpiece ❤
Thanks for that, I actually failed both metal and woodwork at school, it's just goes to show that if it's something that interests you enough that you can actually get better, only took me 40 years to find this out. Thanks for watching
As a blacksmith, I am seriously impressed by your ingenuity with your polishing setup, I’m gonna steal that idea
If it helps just one person it was worth putting on YT. Thanks for watching
Look at the shine!!!!😮
Nice picks there!
I my self, kind of like to modify those huge Chinese picks to fit smaller keyways and have the ability to set the pins that hide between the wardings. Also the shaft needs to be rounded down and made smooth so it can travel more smoothly in the keyway from pin to pin. I do all this while trying to pick a lock, so this way at least I can open one lock with said flag.
I just basically keep modifying the flag until I can pick the lock with it. 😂
Good Job 👏👍
Great video mate. I love that you make the best of the tools you have available. The results are absolutely stunning! 😍 I'll be watching part 2 after my tea 😎👍🏻
Thanks Dmac, your pick building video is a big part of the inspiration to have a go along with the encouragement and feedback on the forum. They are miles simpler than a flat pick and still very simplistic but I will keep going until I get something a bit more special
Anothe amazing video made off the back of my giveaway 😁👍
I'm loving that people are actually making picks and doing great show and tell videos.
That flag looks perfect mate, smooth as butter 👌
Can't wait for part two, cheers for this mate 😁👍🐝
Thanks Terry, you are a muse 😊
Great stuff Nigbee 👍. Big props on hand filing the Ejector pin they are hard as nails!
Generally had no problems with them but the first one I started wrecked my file, had to buy a new one. Thanks for watching.
2 hours work - “good thing it snapped now” 😮😮. Very nice work NigBee. Hopefully the second tip went a bit more quickly
It took so little to snap so better now than when set in a handle. Maybe I should stress them a bit before glueing them in as that really is too late
Uh, what a great video!! I am super glad your 100 subs giveaway pointed me to your channel! Thanks for sharing videos like this! Great work without power tools! I love to see that stuff like this is possible. Amazing how your flag turned out in the end! Great sportsmanship how you reacted to the broken flag 👏👏👏
I am going to be catching up on your videos one by one 😅👍
Thanks Fumbler, too much stuff to keep up with everything. Glad you liked it
That tip came out extremely well, the polish on that is superb, really nice work!, your goodies will be in the post on Friday 👍
Thanks Paul, having watched your video I am even more excited
Fantastic video. I may have to try making one myself now. You’ve made it look easy.
Thanks, once paid with a custom handle I hope it Will be worth the time investment
Bist ein Künstler 😮🎉😮
Wonderful job, I did enjoy watching your process, funny thing is that I was planning on trying my hand at making some dimple picks and I was planning on doing a similar process, thank you for sharing
Would be interested to see your results when you get round to it. Thanks for watching
My buddy NIG BEE!! Master at work 🙌 💪 👌 😎 ❤. Very cool! Beautiful flag bro🤗🤗🤗
Lol, bumbling amateur at work more like, but I take it slow and it works out good sometimes. Will be very careful with yours, extra love
@NIGBEE-lock-bothering ur way to humble sir ✨️ 😌 🙏 and thank you NIG BEE 🫡🤗😎💯🙏🫶🙌
@@NIGBEE-lock-bothering works 💪 every time I've seen them just works of art 🎨 😍 👌 ✨️ 😌 🙌. Can't wait to see what u produce in the future as well 😀
What a great idea! Just ordered some ejector pins too. 1.5mm was the smallest I could get. I guess 20 pieces are enough to create all the profiles that I need 😅
You will need to thin them down, I take most of the top and then oval it afterwards, it takes a long time. I do have some 1mm I am going to experiment with soon. Best of luck with making. What will you do for a handle?
@@NIGBEE-lock-bothering I'm thinking about 3D printing 🖨️ the handles.
Beautiful work!!!!
I was trying to make an Abloy picking tip. Snapped a bit off of the “C” part 😬 it may still work. But the important thing is I learned a lot about how to go about it next time. It’s starting to drizzle so will have to clean up for this session because I like you work outside 😀
Thanks for sharing this with us!!!
🐈⬛🐾🐈🐾🍻👍
Thanks Chris, have you ever had any extra hard ejector pins? Thats 2 in this bag that have been tough to work
@@NIGBEE-lock-bothering not so far but if I do find any I will let us all know. 🐈⬛🐾
Fantastic work Nig! I love the one you made for me, it works great with MTL pin in pin locks. Take care mate and enjoy the rest of your week.
Thanks Gazz, could take me a while to make you a set at this rate.
Awesome work Nigbee 👏 👌
Interesting to see how you make your tips been wondering how you do them since you showed me that one at the meet up looking forward to part 2
Thanks Rich
🤔 hmm i need to figure out what handle I should make to house the "full tang" dimple flag
Have you made some flags?
@@NIGBEE-lock-bothering not yet, i got the injector pins and some tools on the way. I guess getting the flags done will only take time. I have a high powered dremel tool and cutting discs as well as polish barrels, carbide burr/rotary cutter heads and drill bits, but my planning stops at the point where I need to create a stable handle for the (hopefully soon to be) flag pick. I need to think about a couple of ways to secure the resulting flag in a handle
What are ejector pins? I look like a great starting point!
They are easy to Google, easier than describing. I use 1.5mm ones and thin the shaft. Can get them online easy
hello, fantastic, what is used as the material??
???
Hi, sorry missed this. It's called an ejector pin, I use the 1.5mm size but need to thin the shaft. Easy to get in the UK.
@@NIGBEE-lock-bothering Thank you very much.
I'll try to find something similar in my country. I'm from Ukraine.
thanks again for the answer.
Приветствую Очень качественная работа ! Мужик я по Английски не понимаю потскажы с чего сама болванка с каторый ты отмычки вытачиваеш ????? Очень бы пригодилась информация
Привет по-английски называется выталкивающим штифтом, он используется на заводе по производству пластмасс для извлечения пластика из форм. я использую размер 1,5 мм. легко купить в Великобритании на Amazon, я также видел их на AliExpress ejector pin in English
Ты очень меня выручил ! Спосибо большое
I admire your patience to use files, but OMG you are working way too hard. Start with 1.4mm and 1.3mm ejector pins with 6mm heads, wire 100mm long. Use a bench grinder for making the most of the flag. Rotate the pin between your fingers to produce the flag width to 0.100". Quench every two seconds in water. Shape the final flag thickness with a cut-off disc and Dremel tool. Shape the square sides round with the cut-off disc as well. 1.5mm is way too thick.
Thanks, yes the 1.5mm is too thick and produces the hardest part of me making the flag, thinning it down to an oval. I have not found anything in-between 1.0 and 1.5 for ejector pins, I have bought some 1.0 to have an experiment with but they feel really flexible in the pack (not had chance to try them yet) because of my fixing method for the handle the 1.5 becomes an advantage.
That turned out well nigbee, good job, I don’t particularly like metal work, but I’m afraid a wooden pick just won’t cut the mustard.
Woodwork to follow in part 2 ! Hopefully the finished article will be worth the time. Thanks for watching and the kind words
A wooden pick would probably cut mustard 😁👍🐝
@@terrybpickin9941 depends on what the mustard is made of 😆

You are taking all my furst medals 🏅😂
@@NIGBEE-lock-bothering I like shiny things.
Look at the shine!!!!😮
