An online lockpick design generator. Generates templates that you're supposed to fabricate yourself out of saw blades or other metal stock. Lay out the handles and the shaft, then configure the teeth on the business end. Supports diamonds and half-diamonds (with configuration thereof), rakes of different complexities, snowballs, snowmen, and half-halls with different settings. Exports to SVG files.

The original "collection of pick templates" threads on lockpicking101.com are littered with dead links and annoying photobucket .webps that are blurred unless you have an account. HUGE credit goes to the users of LP101. I'm favoring the PDF conversions so you can be sure that they print 1:1. While I was at it, I went ahead and collected every pick template image and PDF that I could find anywhere on the internet. If you want the other 350 MB of blurry, skewed photos of picks next to rulers, then just contact me.
The lockpicking tools aren't really anything to write home about. Extensive collection of utility and vehicle skeleton keys. The Other category is where this shop has the really interesting stuff.
