My fingers saved!

I love this carrier! This allows me to pull the fabric tighter than my aging fingers. Recommended for anyone who does upholstery.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions

I usually sit at the computer so my hands are not in the best shape. This is a great backup tool.

Lifeguard! I'm learning padding, but I'm usually at my computer during the day, so my arms aren't in the best shape. This is a great tool for tightening my tissues without pain. It didn't harm my fabric at all. This is a solid, heavy instrument that I found to be worth the money.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model

Also used as a war hammer

I've used US Art Supply style tongs for about 20 years. It was a good move, but the handle broke at the end. Ordered an Osborne 249 as a replacement. Wow! These should last for a lifetime, and then for several. Extremely heavy and comfortable to wear. Worth the extra money and made in the USA. A small downside is that the finish looks like sand cast, but I'll trade that for durability.

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
