Nice job. Do you normally use a 2.0mm? Seems kind of thick. I made several aluminum picks. I like them for leads that need a little metallic sound, but they aren't my everyday pick. Here's the last one I made, it's .75mm thick:

nice detail. you know, if you burnish the wood the pick will glide more smoothly. I don't know what you have for tools but there are a few you can use to get a good shine... and the tools will not be used conventionally.
A good burnish will happen if you put the wood against high speed moving metal... like the side of a band saw blade. it's a shiny, natural finish.
Just a thought. if you do it, practice a little on some scrap before subjecting your little masterpiece to the "death metal".

I do not know if I am more impressed at the time and patience that took to make..or the fact you can actually keep a pic for 3 weeks..on a good day I can keep track of one for 3 hours tops..

Holy cow, that's a pretty looking pick! (to both you guys)

They're so nice, I'll let you make me some at NO COST TO YOU! (except for price of materials, labor, and shipping + handling)

Sound like a plan?
