Forging a pair of bolt tongs - A different method (2020)

Smiths can never have too many tongs! Here I show a variation to forging a pair of bolt tongs, using different tools than you usually see me use.
I will use a guillotine tool made by Angele Maschinebau, Link:

I use a bending fork to shape the jaw of the tongs and I draw the reins out over the edge of the anvil in a different way that my usual approach.
