HOW TO: put pro handles on the really inexpensive manufactured picks. (basically the core only) these are a couple of dollars each, and not easy to work with,but after applying this technique,they look,work,and feel just like the top-shelf stuff. this was done by request.

thanks,man..i do this to all my main,everyday picks..it makes them just as good (if not even comfy-er) as HPC or SO, imo.
also,when they bend or eventually wear out and break,you just slit the heatshrink open,and re-use the handles.

wizwazzle August 11, 2010 at 1:58 am

yeah,its thick,and it has a layer of hot glue inside so it bonds to whatever’s inside it.
it shrinks quickly

Great idea wizz!!

quaiboi August 11, 2010 at 2:59 am

how fast does it shrink….i mean it’s thick right?

Turn off the damn TV!! it’s distracting you and I!

wizwazzle August 11, 2010 at 4:07 am

no..it comes in a tubular shape…the ends are open.

I was wondering if you need to slit the bottom b/c I noticed it was open and metal was exposed.

Thanks!

Extremely helpful! I’ve always wondered about this shink wrap/tubing stuff & how it works exactly.

toddastewart August 11, 2010 at 6:59 am
