[TheForge] Heads-up: Universal (?) "Tongs"

[Peter Fels & Phoebe Palmer]

Yeah, i was thinking, band saw , a short length of pipe and flat bar, zap.
But…that was the why of my original qualification.
Tong fit demo dilemma…
Would it be educational to heat up the tong jaws and fit them to the need right on the spot?
I’ve seen a lot of demos and given some, but never saw anyone do it.

Not if you want the lock-grip near your hand.  In that case you'd need to
cut the vise grips in half and weld in extensions.  It could work, but why
bother?
