 minature Plyers A friend mentioned he had a small pair of plyers a friend of his carved years ago and had given him. being with a great lack of a productive thing to do. i decidede to try carving a pair.. heres my efforts... http://woodcarvingillustrated.com/fo...ntid=459&stc=1 http://woodcarvingillustrated.com/fo...ntid=460&stc=1 same plyers just open, scale below 2nd photo they will pinch skin, rather well....... basswood with bamboo pins both sides are identical. drill a small hole, needle size or smaller then make a tapered pin incert pin and glue smaller diamiter side, sand off extra pin I would imagine you could get quite elorabate with with checkering on the handles or even make the common slip jaw viriaty we are all more familure with... i made hammer chizzles carving chip knive vice and on and on.. lots of time here at my house.

| Re: minature Plyers Nice work, I have a one-piece pair about the size of a matchstick. No, I didn't carve it; but I collect them. |
