Oh, I'm sorry. I hope I've changed my info accordingly now. Thanks a lot to both of you! Your answers are very helpful! So I take it that while both no 1 and no 3 can be called gooseneck tongs, only no 3 would be called a bolt tong? And I understood it correctly that tongs are used mostly for holding and not (with the exception of scrolling tongs) for shaping workpieces, right? Yes, I've read about the Mastermyr chest. It's a really incredible find!

Hello, for a project I need to translate a text that explains different medieval building professions and their tools into English, among them various tongs. I tried researching the tools online, but with the following tongs I've had my problems. Can you tell me what these tongs are called, please? It'd be most appreciated! 1) 2) 3) Don't know if the photo shows this properly, but this last one is for holding something round.
