Is it better to use a bent nose or a straight nose plier when wire working ?

This is a common question. Pliers become an extension of your fingers. There is no correct or incorrect way to work wire. Some people prefer bent nose and some prefer straight. Accessibility and comfort should dictate which type of plier to use. The more delicate the application, the more comfortable and steady you will want your pliers to be. This will help ensure precision work on your part. I recommend having one of each readily available when you start your project.
