COPPER TONGS 8 1 2 INCH




Suitable for pickling and acid solutions. 8 1/2″ (216 mm) length.

Copper tongs are used to hold the cleaning material during the cleaning process. Safety goggles and heatproof gloves are essential to safety and should be used any time you are firing the kiln.  Other tools that are very helpful with enameling include a firing fork, a sifter, scrolling tool, firing racks and trivets, copper tongs and, of course, safety goggles and heavy heatproof gloves. The firing fork is used to remove pieces from the firing chamber. It has long tines that slip beneath the hot copper base. A sifter is useful to remove any incidental oversized chips from the powdered glaze. A scrolling tool is used to swirl the liquid glass while the piece is still under the heating element. It consists of a long rod with an angled, sharpened tip that easily reaches into the heat of the chamber. Firing racks and trivets hold/elevate the piece while it is under the element. This allows heat to circulate under the form and evenly heat the copper and glass. They also make possible the removal of the finished piece at the perfect moment, because they allow the firing fork to slip under the work.
