You've under-valued your work.

I bid $15 to start off with, although I doubt it'll stay there for long.

I appreciate the sentiment, but the holder of the auction is only required to donate 10% to the site. If you want to donate more on the side, that's your prerogative.

All of the wrapped picks are made of oil quenched spring steel, 0.03125" thick
The bogata's are made from spring steel pulled from wiper blade inserts.

Re: [Auction] Set of my DIY picks

Received my new picks from Clearmoon on Wednesday. What awesome craftsmanship! He also "upped" the prize pool with an additional tensor and pick case! Some days just seem to go my way! I used one of the hooks and immediately opened a Corbin mortise cylinder, excellent feed back. The bogata will take some practice as I haven't practiced raking in a long time. Thank you again Clearmoon for the terrific auction items!

Re: [Auction] Set of my DIY picks

I got see those picks in Mastersmith's box of lock fun. I thought that I was doing alright on my bogotas but, the finish on the bogotas in this set is outstanding. I still have a long way to go.....very nice work.
