Watch Maker Tongs
Here is a small pair of watch maker tongs that were hanging on the shop wall.

Gene, Does this mean you just found them? The worst thing about the new shop is me finding things. I just spent an hour looking for my epoxy.

That'd be one heck of a monster watch!! Take half a cow just to make the wrist band.

It is kinda of a joke among hot iron folks around here to refer to large industrial strength tongs as watch maker tongs. I aquired a couple pair years ago, don't remember where. Donated one pair for blacksmith auction. Will keep this one for a shop wall hanger.
