Many years ago as an early teen, I made some picks out of hacksaw blades. Was a LOT of work...but I still have a few of them.
Over 45 years ago.
Nice work. I have found that the wires in umbrellas work great for making picks. Dont throw those broken umbrellas away!
A very good tip indeed Thank you for sharing 😀👍😷🍫🍫🦊🐼🐸🐷🐵🙈🙉🙊🐔🐝🦋🦘🐓🐈🐕🐇🕊🍀🎄☃️⛄️☃️⛄️stay safe stay well send any spare chocolate to me

Take a sponge and cut a slit in one end edge, like you're making a pocket inside the sponge about an inch or two deep, then soak the sponge in water. You can stop every so often and slide the sponge over the metal piece to quickly cool it off. The wet sponge is cool enough to quench it quickly, without having to remove the metal from the vise to dunk it.
You can do it the quick and dirty way by using a wet paper towel folded over a few times to make a thick pad, and just wrap it around the hot metal to quench it.
Good tip :)
If you keep your Dremel grinding up close to the vise, the vise will act like a heat sink and pull heat off your work piece, so maybe move the stock in out out and stay close to the vise. I build guitars, mandolins, violins, & guitar amplifiers, & lots of other electronics projects, and even pliers will pull enough heat off something to slow down melting solder with a soldering pencil. We even use little aluminum clips as heat sinks to protect some components that do not like heat, from the heat of soldering. I also work on pianos, so music wire has always been very close at hand. I have a couple friends who make everything from guns to Caribbean steel drums, and we have all learned a lot about heat treating different metals, and ruining different metals with heat.
Always fun to see basic metal shop (machine shop) skills applied to a different field of endeavor...
Never cut steel with your good lineman pliers it will mess up the cutting edge. Cut copper or aluminum only. For cutting steel wire use pliers or side cutters you don't mind messing up.
Just returning to the sport from the early eighties, back in those preinternet days I used to make pick tips to fit an exacto knife handle. I used lawn mower pull return spool steel for the picks. It was hard spring steel and worked great.
Nice addition to your quickpick guide Bill. Those handles are called D-Handles here in Australia and a great find. Taking something meant for something else and turning it into a fine hand tool. That's Great DIY and another item most people will find easy to locate, even if they have to disassemble there kitchen.
I'm still new to making picks, but I've found that I can use 1/8 inch soldering wire hammered flat to cut and shape templates. Then I can take the templates and copy them onto a old bandsaw blade and cut them out with a grinder or cut-off tool to make even the trickiest of pick shapes. They aren't the fanciest but they are flexible and hold up really well.
I also used your tip about the micarta to make handles and am really impressed with the way they turn out. Thanks for all the info on everything locksport.
Thanks a million for this video! Tonight I sat down and made some windshield wiper insert tools, and so far working great! Gotta get a file and sandpaper in the morning to finish the job!
Bill if you look at 15:18 you will see what I mean about using Alan keys :) they almost look the same :)
all the best

Ahh 2012, when even calm TH-camrs had to have some kind of techno animated intro.
Ahh 2019 just before when covid came along and flipped life upside down 😅
Thank you for all that you do Bill! Your videos are super helpful! You're the best!!
first rule when u making picks, do not allow the metal be hot, if it changes its colour, then the pick will be easy to be broken.
I sure do miss hearing his opening theme every week or so.
Hey man i found your videos very useful.
I couldn't find music wire anywhere close by so i decided to buy klein tools wide steel fish tape. Its made from spring steel and i think its what the good picks you can buy online are made from
Thanks for the lesson. Just can't find this musical wire in Brazil since translation is not precise... Is It standard stainless steel wire? I bougth this Goso starter kit.. so much fun. Even better after making my own picks to complement my humble kit.
I have been using wind screen wiper inserts I have found laying around on the streets, to make picks, since long before I figured out where they were coming from- I thought it was manna from heaven!) But they inserts I find on our Australian streets are completely different; they are about 15cm long x 2mm wide x thin enough to make good picks. Do we have different wiper blades out here?
those may be Street sweeper bristles.
Yup street sweeper bristles. Those are high carbon quality spring steel.
Street Sweeper Bristles sound promising and interesting..but these are windscreen wiper blade inserts..took me years to figure it out .( not thinking particularly hard;)
Yeah, take a look at: (121) Make Your Own Pick Handles with Interchangeable Tips (Quickpicks)

I made a set of these. I only had aluminum rod, so the threads won't live long, but I just wanted to see what it felt like, and I really like it. I'm going to do a rolled steel set if I can tap it. Thanks for that video and this one. Still good stuff, 8 years later.
What about automotive feeler gauges, they come on something just like the covert companion, this blades to draw out the pic you want and its numbered so i can choose whether i want a certian pic .007-.025 quick and easy, use tin snips to cut out close to your template u drew and then a dremel to finish it. My issue is Im just starting the hobby and even after ordering some cheap pic sets and some recommended, i find it still really hard to get it to work. 25 years as an auto technician, feelin in my finger tips arent that great , feeling correct tension is even worse...but as i watching watching videos where key way space was super tight, instantly i remember feeler gauges are number, come in a handy little carrier and has the room on the blades to draw and customize each pic u want
Do you know what they call the L shaped cabinet handle? Because I can only find the C shaped handles and none of the L shaped ones
Wow came out great, thanks for the demonstration!
Maybe you could also make a tip using a small diameter Allen wrench?
Seeing the music wire after you bent it kind of resembled a fallen wrench to me.
You would just need to round the edges and grind the flag part down to make it flat.
Not sure if that would work or not, just an idea.
And if you dont round off the end that goes into the handle of the Allen wrench the set screw would have a flat side to lock down onto.
Allen wrenches are too weak. I tried using them as tension rods and they twisted like a soft noodle
Just wondering, since you recommend .015-.031 for most picks, would .05 wire only work for specific locks with a lot of clearance? Or does the fact that the wire is rounded make up for the excess width? I wanted to try making some wire picks but was a bit confused as to what diameter/range of diameters would be appropriate.
P.S. The handles youve made are awesome. I'll definitely have to make a bronze one similar to your design!
Thank you! Now I understand how you could make a pick from music(Piano) wire =)
Is it as easy to work (drill/tap/shape/etc.) with stainless steel handles as it is with brass? I've been looking around for a local store that sells brass rods but no luck, so far.
Also, how do you go about straightening the music wire? I'm assuming it will be curved once you cut it from the spool.
Thanks for the video Bill, it's very useful but the problem is that i couldn't find a 'clear' dimple lockpick templates. I need them so badly, how can i find?
Great tutorials bill. I like ur handles a lot and want to make some, but how do u get he grub screw in there? Is it explainedin any of your wonderful video catalouge?
This is covered in the handles video but basically just drill a hole, tap a thread and screw the thing in.
ohh yah like to thank also for the good tip od drawer handle.you are such a smart guy man. love you ha ha!
10:31 *Everything reminds me of her!* 🥺
What's hacksaw blades like .
I wonder if these would work on Best locks
can you make rakes for these handles aswell, or only flags?
thanks John, funny you mentioned this, i got some knives at the dollar store the other day :P made a 50 thousand thick prybar, and got some thinner stuff for making picks, not sure if a rake or pick will feel good in these handles but ill diffidently give it a try
excelente video
Fantastic 🎉
Do you make custom sets?
Bravo Sir.... Great video Bill
hey bill what about that allen wrench you used tightining the screw. is it alright too to make as a dimple lockpick?sounds strong.
Music wire...would you be referring to piano wire?.
What size allen screw did you use for the small handle?
wow super,,,thnx sir like best tools
great vids Bill :) for these types of tips couldnt you use Alan keys *cut-filed-sand papered down?? just a thought mate :)
Great idea. Would love to see someone shoot that vid. I am new and just learning.
Allen keys are way too soft
I bet those tips would work in the south order no 200 handle wouldn't they bosnianbill ??
Any one know, what name the heandle
Very Good!...
Too much shaft;
We just want the tip, Bill.
I found the pocket pen lock pick tips work well and cost like $1.65 a peace
can you make picks out of Allen wrenches?
can you make a video on how you would go about making tension tools out of allen wrenches please?
@@landonsarrett5686 I've made tension wrenches out of Allen wrenches
So out to the shop i go.....lol
After several hours of searching, I finally found the L shape handle. It's part of a Siro adjustable cabinet pull, SIR-44-316. Much more expensive now, but a few can be found on eBay.
