  21. Materials

  22. Also these things I didn’t feel like downloading pictures of: • Talcum powder • Sandpaper (400, 600, 1000) • X-Acto knife or Chinese knockoff • Container full of ice water • Cavity search gloves (optional)

  23. Making the Mold • Prepare original pick with release agent • Heat Shapelock • Press pick < halfway into shapelock and let harden • Heat more Shapelock and press it onto top of pick, completely covering bottom half of mold • After all the Shapelock is cool, pry everything apart

  24. It Should Look Like This

  25. Optional Followup • Use new mold to impress clay around a metal blank (don’t forget the release agent), carve interesting shapes and bevels into it, imprint your area code, bake clay, let cool, and repeat Shapelock molding process with your new pick handle

  26. Wiper Blades and You • Use your old ones or ask at an oil/tire change place • Avoid Bosch • Don’t poke an eye out when stripping the rubber off • Cut inserts between 4 ¾” – 5” long • Use Sharpie to draw or trace your templates

  27. Dremel Brand Rotary Tool • Get a bucket of ice water • Don’t plug in your Dremel without goggles on • Do you enjoy breathing toxic metal dust? If not, get a dust mask • Apply cutting wheel at right angle to metal, and cut notches in the bottom; use 8-9 on the speed dial • Quench often

  28. Sanding the Pick • Use stone first on edges • Use Dremel sanding disks on flats (don’t let the metal get too hot) • Clamp metal in Vise Grips and start sanding by hand using 400, 600 and 1000 grits in progression • Electrician’s tape makes good fingertip armor

  29. Molding the Handles • Dump talcum powder onto both halves of mold and blow off excess • Work clay in pasta machine or by hand until soft • Roll out approximate length of handle, twice • Squish one into mold • Insert metal

  30. Squish other clay part on top of metal • Put mold halves together and squeeze the shit out of them • Pull halves apart and work handle out • Trim seams with hobby knife • Place on white paper until other handles are finished, bake in large batches

  31. Take a well-earned break while the picks are baking (according to the instructions on the package)

  32. You’ve Polished Off the Handles, now Polishthe Handles • Set speed to about 3 or 4 • Attach fabric buffer wheel • Run over handles, keeping constant motion until polished

  33. Apply Liberal Dose of Tubgirl • Squirt and wipe dry with microfiber cloth or sock

  34. Videos and Music • Ghost in the Shell + derivatives • MST3K and Rifftrax • Con presentations • Dual Core • Alestorm • Skinny Puppy
