    your "unconventional assertions" don't bother me one bit. what does bother me is that I spent a few minutes of my time to give you a honest answer when the whole time you were just hiding in the weeds waiting to shove any replies down the throats of those that made them. go on and hold your "art" in your channel locks. I won't be fooled into responding to you again.

    channel lock pliers are a poor replacement for tongs. do yourself a favor and buy a set of tongs. if you go into any blacksmith shop you will see racks filled with tongs. channel locks are in the toolbox for working on the car. btw railroad spikes make poor knives at best. I am guessing that you are somewhat of a beginner (you didn't say) so no offense meant, but if you're going to go down this road you might as well start in the right direction. soon you will be making your own tongs.

    mild steel is plenty good or whatever you have laying around. Make a few sets while your at it. Drill a few holes for heading rivets or holding special jobs. No need for hardened jaws in my opinion. A picture of the vise would be good. google image search for 'vise jaw inserts'

    I have heard that piezoelectric sparkers give some relief. Haven't tried them myself but you probably have a few in your shop already. http://www.masterformula.net/piezo_pen.htm

    I spell it both ways. I have wondered tho if the "reese" hitches were hardy/hardie inspired?

    no pictures? how can we have an opinion without seeing how the modifications were done? could be good, could be bad. without a picture how can we know?

    tiny tongs

    Bob S replied to Rhettbarnhart's topic in Tongs

    if 'mini' tongs are just pliers are large pliers just tongs? when does a tong become a plier?
  25. Bob S
    wondering why you would ask that?
