    If anyone is looking for better (longer) Grabbers these Tongs are normally $39.99 at Walmart. So if your getting ready to BBQ or Feed the Snakes you cant beat $16 w/free shipping for a quality piece. I just ordered a couple and he has some left. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1d60ba7ded.png

    You might consider coating the tips of those tongs to make them a little more grippy for your prey and a little more safe for your BP.

    Im glad to be back for a few months. I finish & start the season out near you. I stay at the Clarion on Transit at the Airport exit during Spring & Fall before we get working downstate more. This fall I found a great place for BBQ. I think it was called Fat Bobs Smokehouse. Then I found a great wing place.. So i spent Oct/Nov eating in Buffalo getting ready for winter hibernation hahhha

    Got them. They will need a little adjusting. They have a sharp edge so im using a file so it isn't sharp in case the snakes hit it when eating. Id like to coat the ends. Trying to google some kind of Rubber Dip? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...3f0de1cc76.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...84efe495f0.jpg

    plastidip as the mentioned, i would imagine flex seal would work, or they have rubber coating for like the swing set chains and such

    I got the Dremel for $10 at Harbor Freight. These grabbers wont do good for a large Rat, there to long to support the weight 26" away hahahah. But they will be fine for smaller stuff. Ohh well.

    I finished the aluminum with a sharpening stone and smoothed it so nice it feels like plastic. Might not need anything else but next time im at Lowes ill grab that dip anyway.. Cant hurt to have it a little softer. I wonder if the dip is hard plastic or like Rubber..
