It's this kind of out of the box thinking that really seperates your channel from a lot of others out there. The long tradition of bodging lock picks started with MIT's lock picking manual suggesting street sweeper bristles and it's good to see you continuing that hacking (in the original sense of the word) tradition into the 21st Century.
These are all great hacks especially for the newbie that doesn't want to spend the dollars on commercial stuff until they know they are hooked on locksport. Other hacks I have and still use are wooden dowels as followers and the clear acrylic rods as followers as they allow the light in so you can see what you are pinning up, These are the offcuts I have from making a light follower using the pen torches. The other one I use is cutting down a key to use as a skeleton key. Plus I still like your idea of repurposing a selfie stick as a set of followers. Thanks for doing this video, cheers
I never would have thought of the hand vise. I was very hesitant in buying a key impressioning tool. I heard about the wiper blades, hack saw, and sweeper.
Torch idea is a cracker to use as a follower. How about harness tape wrapped around picks to make comfy handles. Or Smint tins stuck together to make Lockbab desk tidy. You could even use a Smint tin to hold bent nail tension tools and picking wires to make your very own Covert Lever Lock Picking Kit. Some very cool hacks in your video, maybe your next hack video you might like to add a couple of my suggestions 😉
Poundland screwdriver at 5:34 ......have quite a few of these. Heard about them on BigCliveDotCom who mentioned BosnianBill. Which took me to following LockPickingLawyer and then onto following you. So, a very roundabout link from a screwdriver to your channel :D
yeah I swear by the pill boxes for putting springs and pins in I appreciate the other half you show that I did not know about and reminded me about others that I had forgotten about too. 🦾👍🔥🔥
Fishing tackle boxes make excellent toolboxes for locksport as the have a lot of small compartments to keep all our stuff in.

Extraordinary content in a few minutes! Thank you so very much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have a set of adson forceps that I use for pinning. They are used for stitching up people after surgery. They clamp onto flesh and pins
You can also get stainless steel plaster leveling tools in packs of 5 different thicknesses. Useful for making your own picks and jiggler keys.
I like the bar mat one, nice one
Cool hacks. Thank you for sharing.
Great job Ash, always grateful to learn something new 😊🙏
Cool stuff Sir, thanks!
Awesome video, learned a lot. Thank you.
I really like the bar mat and pen holder ideas.
A well-worn streetsweeper blade is also quite effective is a bypass tool for Master combination lock

Any hacks for picking tubular locks, to where you don’t need to pick it multiple time per open?
A new use for old batteries, Cheers ;-)
Wonderful hacks!!!😀🐈🐾🐈⬛🐾🇬🇧🍻
I've got a GOSO pick case you can have.
Would you like me to send it to you?
Let me know if you do. 👍
Great !
Did a double take when I saw the brand name Rolson, but it's nice to get something useful out of them because their locks are just awful!
this lock is unpickable impossible "circular pad lock bunker hill security model 63782"
Noice
Can you make a tutorial on making tips out of ejector pins
That is a really good idea actually
