I guess they would work, but I prefer to be able to rotate the piece while working on it. With the locking hot fingers you can rotate it just like it was on a punty.

My pieces are a bit smaller than the usual marble. Often around or under 1/2" dia. So you can see how the finger tips are close enough to the working flame to cause dents on these small pieces.
Punties dont work for the final steps for finishing my pieces as the places where the punties would go, are finished points and I need to be able to roll and put some pressure on the piece to make the points. Hotfingers seem to be the thing to get this done for now. I can grip the piece, and roll it with sideways pressure with these.
