    Many thanks! I'm glad it was useful to others, it certainly was for me!

    Great tip. I made a slider for my tweezers a few years ago from a scrap piece of Cooper tubing. I split the tubing length wise and hammered it flat. The I filed it before heating the Cooper then bending it around the back of a tweezer. Had to cut the Cooper again to make the final joint and soldered it so it would not come loose.i actually did it to all my non cross lock tweezers. I only had 1 cross lock tweezer trying solder a joint and one pair was not enough and I had to get the job done. This is what forced me to improvise. Thanks for the video and getting the word out. Thinking out of the box comes in handy.

    The tweezer slot in your bench peg is a stroke of genius. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend.

    I like Silver Meister’s set up where he has his torch mounted so has both hands free to use. If I ever can I will do that. You should check out his channel.

    ESD stainless steel tweezers are worth a look.
    Used in electronics have very fine points for picking up tiny items.
    You can get a set of seven for about £8 on Amazon.

      They sound useful but that cheap price makes me nervous

    Do you use Natural diamonds? Or just lab ones?

    Awesome video. Do you know what the bigger tweezers are made for? I’ve never seen anything that big at our local jewellers supply.

    • @DiamondMounter

      I use my bigger tweezers for heavier rings or for things that need to be held extra tight
