[@MINGLE2008]

Hi Peter nice to see you back. Thanks for the video. A very useful tool.

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Glad you enjoyed it

Great idea. I use mine for the toaster

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Brilliant. Cheers. Peter

Glad to see you back Mr. Parfitt! I always enjoy your videos and learn something useful.

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Thank you very much. Peter

Nice to see you back Peter! Absolutely a top little project, and it is surprisingly useful to almost everyone I’d think.. I think we should do more of this 😉

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Thank you so much - I will do more. Cheers. Peter

The Parf Slug Catcher coming to a Store near you soon! I can feel another King’s Enterprise Award coming on! Great video Peter love the simple design 👍

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Hi David, You are very kind - it was a quick solution to overcome a gardening problem and so I thought it worth sharing. Cheers. Peter

Hi Peter We have a couple of similar tongs which were sold many years ago for extracting slices of toast from a toaster. Very useful and, if you do it while the toaster is on, safer than metal tongs.

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Hi Mike, I had not thought of that. Cheers. Peter

Hey Peter, we are celebrating Christmas in July here in the colonies. That’s for sharing and excellent little item I can knock out for my family members that have their own homes. Cheers and Merry Christmas

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Hi Gary, Yes, I thought that it would make a good idea for a present. Happy un-Christmas ! Cheers. Peter

[@smoking745]

Thank you for the video, Peter.

Really beautiful work, Peter! 😃 I definitely need to make some of those as well! I almost burned my hand trying to turn some pork ribs I was baking earlier today. 😬 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Many thanks for this. Cheers. Peter

Hi Peter, hope your well, some thing so simple but so effective and there is nothing better than some thing to turn your sausages or pick your bacon up, a good kitchen utensil that can be made in the workshop. As always a great video Take care

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Many thanks. Peter

The piece of wood you cut the wedge from has a matching angle you can use for clamping the pieces together.

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Yes, I did do this with my trial one but mislaid the offcut when doing the second. Cheers. Peter

[@tonythorrington3740]

Why not just cut a 3 degree small wedge off that 3foot length!??

[@NewBritWorkshop]

Hi Tony, Because the grain will run the wrong way making the tongs weak in the middle. Peter

Surprised no mention is made of which woods are/aren’t food safe nor the importance of food safe adhesives.
