Squirt Forceps
on: March 14, 2015, 11:42:37 PM
Hey MTO!

Been insanely busy had to stop in to share a small project with you guys. I've been using some small forceps for pulling rubber through slingshot pouches for a while now and I wanted to make a new band making jig, but have all the tools and material in one place so I can take it on the road to shows and tournaments.

I dove into the archives and found a used PS4 and ground the tips to be narrower to slip through the small hole in the leather. The rest of the onboard tools remained the same as I wanted scissors to cut the rubber tabs off and a flat head driver to adjust some attachments I have on some of my slings.

You maybe be wondering, the tips are now weakened..it's grabbing some rubber, not torquing a 1/2" bolt. Overkill? Yes. What I want? Yes.

Good to be partially back.

Very nice. Is there a reason you didn't grind off more to make more a 'needle nose' to be able to get it through the hole?

I only need so much and I didn't want to compromise the jaw in case I needed them.
