<p>SOUVUELLE: 79.71% covellite / 20.29% copper master crafted results in a speed cap of 7</p>
<hr />
<div>{{RTOC}}'''Tongs''' are a crafting tool used in [[Blacksmithing]], [[Weaponsmithing]], and [[Armorsmithing]].<br />
<br />
See [[Crafting Tools]] for details.<br />
<br />
==Creation and Repair==<br />
Tongs can be created using [[Forging skill|forging techniques]] that fall under the [[Blacksmithing discipline]].<br />
<br />
Likewise, their repair falls under the same skills, with standard processes for [[Blacksmithing discipline#Tool Repair|metal tool repair]].<br />
<br />
==Templates==<br />
<br />
Tongs use material thermal resistance to derive their effectiveness.<br />

==Crafting Notes==<br />
* [[Covellite]] will make great tongs (outperformed only by rare metals [[Audrualm]] or [[Icesteel]]).<br />
* Metals such as covellite must be "weighted" to 3.0 density before it can be used in Forging. The proper density can be achieved with mixes of 80% covellite/20% copper or 70% covellite/30% bronze.<br />
