First Pick Set
Want to throw out a thanks, I have learned alot in the last few weeks as a member of this board, both directly from members and indirectly by crusing the posts.
I know that this has been asked before, but one more time...
I am about to buy my first real pick set, I had been using the gimmicky old credit card pick set, and while they worked fine (ish) for the 4 and 5 non security pinned old loose master locks I had, I recently got Mr Wizard's 7 pin rekeyable practice lock and these picks (never mind the tension wrench) just wont work. I am pretty much decided on the Sparrows WizWazzle, due to varied selection and what I have heard about their durability vs price. Also I like the case...
So... I DO know the following (I Promise):
The best picks are home brew (I am currently hopelessly bad at home brewing picks)
The best pick is the one that opens the lock the easiest for you (yup, but I have to find that pick first)
Dont get too many picks at first, you only need a few (Also, I know, but this is a decision based on the knowledge that I will buy more until I have the whole set, so might as well get the bulk discount)
I just want to see if there are any other products that I haven't considered that would be about the same price (less than $100 total) or another reason that I would want to choose something else. I will likely be picking up their flat TW set as well, cause its supposedly very similar (exactly) to Peterson's. I would likely replace and get onsies from Peterson's as the sparrow's break/bend (if they do).
Thanks Folks!
