Tong Description

First Tong's
This pair was oddly the last pair i made, i made the other two and i didnt really have many ideas that werent involving the large bends in them so i got on the phone to Richard and he said why dont you work on making them more comfortable rather than more useful. So i bent it a little so that it comes in at a different angle, personally i find it a little more comfortable in the hand. This pair on the ones i have got the most faith in.
Second Tong's
These tongs were set so that the bend would increase the tension around the nib of the tongs, they were a real bitch to get right because making up two tong reins right then put them together then one has changed somehow. I am looking forward to seeing how this comes together in the testing.

  Third Tong's
This is the wild pair, i made them up with the intention of putting a chain on the end then holding one of the reins instead of both. It was an odd idea me and Andrew had of just holding the one rein instead of the two. I am really looking forward to seeing how people try to hold these.
