Prefect Pliers for Pile Removal

[pwiles1968]

I am talking arrow tips not the other sort

I found the HT terminal crimp section of cheap Electrical crimping pliers are the perfect size for fitting and removing Piles, and as I said they are cheap.

Are you not better getting your piles removed by the doctor???? Pliers sound awfy painfull!!!




Sorry, couldn't resist....

I use the Leatherman Crunch. Nice piece of kit.

Leatherman wave for normal piles, leatherman charge Ti for small piles. Also, the serrated blade on the leatherman tools is ideal for fletching removal

I just use my Gerber Archer's multitool and a scrap of leather...

[wingate_52]

I agree, the serated blade works a treat and can easily be honed to extreme sharpness.

If you can sit on your fingers you probably dont need the pliers

On the straw bosses I have seen several people use a pile pusher [no, honestly] which is basically a mushroom shaped wooden handle with a blunt metal rod sticking out of it, find the pile in the boss [the difficult bit]with the metal bit and then push it through out the back
