hello

[Tom Phelps]

any other members of the guild of metalsmiths?

Tom,

Yes, Bob Johnson here. This is my first post, anywhere. I am glad to see this site back up. This is where I got the plans for the unusual tongs with the dangling loop, that I showed at the February Guild meeting. I can no longer find it in the Blueprints.

I made the bending forks for, and then made a pair of Poz tongs last weekend, and during the week, have sketched a tool to help keep the bends tight. I will make that Saturday.

Sunday Jim Moenck and I will visit Ben's shop for another informal mentoring session.

Catch ya'll later, Doc

Dangle loop tongs are Blueprint BP0303. We are making corrections to that series and it should be back on line soon.
