Over the years I have also used prongs or welding arms which are for the made I believe made for the Hobart

You will note that the long tongs are covered in rubber this is just sheet rubber to act as insulation so that the tongs don’t ground out on when reaching in to a deep point.
Hope this answers your questions.
Weare Rally was good though a bit wet, the East Weare flood control area that we usually use for trail rides was actually closed on Saturday because of high water so alternative rides had to be used. Several Youtube posts of the rally can be found at
