This may have been mentioned before, but I'm just now running across it. It's a really neat idea; and I thought some of you might find it interesting, and perhaps one or two of you might find it worth trying. Pickmaster

Never used them and never will..fingers...the best way to play

Although I'm a finger-player myself, I'm not going to judge others that play with a pick. Some styles (like punk) are really suited for pick-style playing. This product might be of some use to them.

They seem a good idea for recycling various materials into your own picks. I have seen them on ebay before and did contact a seller about them because I wanted to know if they would cut material 3mm thick as I use that size dunlop stubby plectrums for guitar playing. Sadly the seller I contacted said they would not.

I have a similar device. I have been using the resulting picks for a while, and I and find that I like them as much as the regular Fender mediums. But, I also like thicker picks. On the other hand, it makes a lot of picks for free from credit card offers and stuff, so that is nice.

I play with a pick mostly but I can see that it would be a real quest to find the right material, unless you're one of those who just needs a pick, not a specific one...I am the latter...Tony

I'm Old School enough to have played with a pick, still do for certain things. Those little picks are OK, but maybe they'll scale that thing up where you can make a Full Grown Man's Pick:
