Thanks for the great video that shows a useful tool that I need to make.

Nice tool! I can see how useful it is for small stuff!

Thanks! They have limited application but there are certain things that they are excellent for. I removed all my comments from your video. I am sorry to flood your comment section with pointless arguments. On another note are you interested in a challenge?

Will do.

Excellent, informative, instructive video. Please consider making instructional videos showing how to make the other 2 types of tweezers shown in the video at the end. Especially the heavy duty pair. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills. These will definitely go on my "TO MAKE" list.

Thanks for the nice comments. I might do another video about the other tweezers for my Patreon page (once I launched it), but for now I have other ideas that I am working on. If you have any questions regarding the topic just leave it in the comment section and I'll try to answer it.

Thx and going to try and make a pair this weekend.

Very nice! Never thought about something like that, but I can definitely see them being handy in my shop for a lot of the little things I make. Next time I light the forge.....

I've never seen these before. I think I will make a set for when I am working with small fiddly bits!

I think so. Make sure the holes are tight so you don't have play in the copper rivets.

Ray, the heavy duty tweezers are made from 3/8" x 1/2" flat stock. The "spring ring" at the handle is around 4" OD and the overall length is 20". The gap between the prongs is about 3/8". I hope this helped. I am looking forward getting your pictures.

Definitely going to make a couple of pairs. Do you have an Instagram page Sir? Thank you for sharing

Awesome! If you want send me some pictures and I'll feature you in my next video. I am working on a few vids and hopefully be able to upload the first one sometime next week. I have a guy from the Nederlands who also made a pair and sent me pictures of it.

I have made tongs, but what a pain, these look a lot easier. I will make some soon.

Hey Tom, yes, making tongs is a lot of work. Now days, shame or not, I use tong blanks and just finish the jaw part. It takes about 30 minutes. The tweezers are a good and easy to make option but cannot substitute tongs in heavier operations.

What is "flex" stock?

@DesertOwlForge

I don't know. I think you misheard "flat stock". It is made from 1/8" x 3/4" mild steel.
