Pliers MK 5 were another step down in material, up in strength, & more closely related to the venerable Archer.




The mane problem is the ratchet doesn't passively lock & doesn't have enough clearance. It hasn't been worth printing another pair though.


Helas, it's proven easier to float the small boards upside down & just use the pliers for picking them out. The pliers are still essential for moving the boards.
