But don&#8217;t overlook the small long-nose version. I think it&#8217;s one of the handiest tools I own. I&#8217;ve had the 4&#8243; version for over 20 years and I go to it for all sorts of things: an improvised handle for my air pump valve lock when it broke, a way to turn a small nut in a hard-to-get to location, a clamp to hold small parts together while the super glue sets. If don&#8217;t have massively strong hands and fingers, they are just the thing to get a better grip with. Put some finger tips from a rubber glove over the jaws for a cushioned grip. When they went off to college, I bought my daughters a pretty complete tool set from Harbor Freight. The only thing I added was a 4&#8243; long nose vise grip.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pinch like a robot<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":76,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[41],"tags":[2328],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24114"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/76"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24114"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24114\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24116,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24114\/revisions\/24116"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24114"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24114"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24114"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
