October 20, 2007, from Lloyd Erlick,

Those sound like Kindermann.

I use no tongs at all. I prefer to work single-tray (also much easier
cleanup at end of the day). In fact, I use nothing at all that will touch
the image area of my prints while they are wet.

I find things like tongs, squeegee, drying screens, etc., unnecessary.
They're merely sources of damage to the print, and occasions for accidents.

I don't understand the logic of a print tong that releases the print if you
grip "too tightly". Where does the print fall ... ?

regards,
--le
