Improved Mooney Warther's Wooden Pliers

This version of the pliers improves the wooden joint in a way that would be tricky to do with simple carving tools. The joint is more constrained and forms a circular pivot.

Originally designed to be cut with 10 simple cuts from a single piece of wood. This unique joint was first designed by master carver Earnest "Mooney" Warther.
