I am in the need of another pair of tongs, a pair of box jaw tongs for the high carbon bloomery steel billet, since this billet is a non-standard size.
The tongs are forged of 3/4" - 20 mm rebar.
I show the estimation of how much material I need for each half of the tongs and I then start to forge the pair of tongs till I have a pair that holds the bloomery steel billet well!
All forged with a hand hammer.
