The nippers are available at a Beauty Supply Store. The brand I use is Tweezerman with the 1/2 inch jaw. There are seveal price ranges for these things and the cheap ones, around $ 12, just will not do. The ones that will work are in the $ 22 range. A Sally Beauty supply will have a number of things that are valuable to a rod builder. Personna Razor Blades and Hair Shaper Safety Handle, Emory boards to work cork, cuticle pushers to pack thread and facial care units can be the thing with a hole in it to tie nail knots. I am presently testing a uV protectant they sell for finger nail gel coat protection.

The next thing you guys will be hanging out at Victoria's secret.

If you do check at the Bra counter and say hey to Putter, He still thinks they are double barrel slingshots.

Thanks Bill! Neaver thought of cuticle pushers to pack thread. Gee, that will save the thumb nails.
