    I love your seizure rake technique. I want to try that!

      I tried it based on a Christina Palmer document that says really short strokes at high speed is very effective. I've found that it is, but it's hard to keep up 😅

    I'm fairly new to picking, but you make it looks so easy

      Thanks! I’ve been doing this for a few years, and I put a lot of hours in. I wish I could claim some natural talent for it, but really it was just deliberate practice. But it paid off, and the hobby is as satisfying as ever 🙂

      Having the locks upside down or so the pins fall way from the barrel instead of towards the barrel also seems to make it way easier. No luck with my filing cabinet. Wish I could flip that upside down......

    There’s a lock picking lawyer video or covert instrument video I watched that’s shows how to put the ergonomic turning tools in there and have it shut perfectly normally. Basically you put in in the crease pocket the the bottom of the l shape in the middle part and the tip of the bottom of the l shape needs to be in between the picks in the middle. Find video if that doesn’t make sense.

      That's where I usually keep them, but I still wish the case would lie a little flatter. But it works pretty well. Thanks for the comment!

    Just catching up on vids 😊. They've certainly had a good work out 😂. 👍

    The ergo turners were meant to go into the tiny pocket on the hinge, with the point ending between picks.

      I know it shows them like that in their images, but I don't like how it folds up that way. If I were to carry it like that, it seems like it would wear a hold in the fabric pretty quickly. Not because of bad design, it's just a difficult shape of turning tool to try to carry in a flat-ish case.

      The hinge pocket is where I put mine. It's my EDC FOR 2 MONTHS

      No scratching or anything on the case?@@JS-xi5nk

      Great vid. Added my genesis set and some other items to it. Go to kit.

    Really enjoyed this, music to pick by is different and relaxing, thanks

    The kit was designed specifically to be able to fit the genesis pick set in so beginners could start out buying the genesis and then naturally upgrade to the next level to this.

    skip the genesis set and get this one. maybe buy the 2 0.25 hooks from the genesis and you basically have it all. I keep the ergo wrenches on the right side like LPL does. works decent.

    Doc, great review. The picks work well in the hands of a master such as yourself. Watch out though, McNally might get jealous. 😳
