Get two 4" pieces of wooden doweling the size of a broom handle <br />or a little larger. <br />2. Drive a stout nail into one end of each dowel. <br />I Use a file to sharpen the nail heads to a point. <br />4. Drill a hole into the dowels (in the end opposite the nail) and tie <br />a length of strong cord through the hole so a pick is on each end <br />"jump -rope" fashion. You may also drill a hole in the ends alongside <br />the nails so the nail on the other pick can nest in the hole, keeping <br />both points covered. Keep the picks in your pocket for quick <br />emergency. <br />Worth 10 Points <br />
