The Things We Said – You Need Them For What?
Posted on December 24th, 2009 in The Things We Said
Rona Guy: Tools department, how can I help you?
Shasta: Do you guys carry any nylon-jaw pliers?
Rona Guy: Nylon-jaw pliers?
Shasta: Yeah, or pliers that have any type of soft jaws?
Rona Guy: What are you using them for?
Shasta: Making…chainmail
*Silence*
Shasta: Ok so I have these anodized aluminum rings and my regular pliers are scratching the finish. Do you have any tools that won’t do that?
Rona Guy: No, no we don’t

They make rubber tips to go on regular pliers to not scratch plumbing fixtures. Might those help?

You can also get rubber stuff to dip handles in that might also work. Otherwise, get some flat jewelery pliers. the kind without serrated tips (I make jewelery and silver is a PITA to not mar).
