Best ways to make your own picks are to file down some old steak knives you find at a tag sale, file down brickstrap and make a handle out of electrical tape, or file down bicycle spokes and make a handle out of tape. In an emergency, a paperclip unfolded and bent at a 45°-75° angle works most of the time.
A thin, bent scewdriver works well as a torsion wrench.
Start on desk or file cabinet locks, they usually only have three pins, and the keyway is nice and wide.
