Lentil Tongs
 

Just bought a wonderful tutorial, however I do need a Lentil tong. Which one is everyones favorite. I will also post in Garage sale, incase anyone wants to sell at a good price.

I use Jim Moore Deep lentil tongs, and I supplement with my Mag's Mashers.

Thanks
 

I just ordered the Jim Moore tongs, can't wait to try out with your tut

Where can I buy a set of lentil mashers/tongs

For sure Arrow Springs and Frantz sell them, and a host of other suppliers, depending on how quick you want them and what part of the country you're in. Google 'hot glass lentil masher' and you'll get a slew of places.

Welcome to LE. As ESC said, google is your friend in that search. You're likely to turn up more presses & graphite shaping tools however.

There are several threads on LE about tong vs press, etc., that you might check out - here's one. You can use Search function to find more
