I've totally forgotten to post on my latest tool purchase!
I was lucky enough to recently stop by a Heiko Wild booth. Wild (pronounced "Vihld") is a medical instrument company that for whatever reason occasionally has tools for sale during festivals.
I suppose there is enough of a market for non-medical customers like model-builders, artists, shrine makers (yours truly) as well as the freak who likes to perform surgery in the comfort of their home. Who am I to judge? I'm grateful.
They have flat nosed tweezers, pointy tweezers, off-set tweezers, tweezers that are always open and need to be squeezed for their points to meet as well as the opposite tweezers which are always closed and need to be squeezed in order for them to open. The tweezing possibilities are endless and at times, overwhelming.
Made in Germany, affordable, non-rusting, nice.
Guilty confession: this year I bought a tweezer with an intersected groove at the tips. The little hole in the middle of the intersection enables the user to get a thread around whatever it is they've got in the grips of their little tweezing hands... wwwwhhhaaa hah hah hah (evil laugh here)
