@arnasassin My back isnt as sore as it used to be thanks to the Iron roughneck & my fingers are all mine- tongs are history

@akfred ya true the novelty runs dry shortly lol

We only use tongs when breaking or making up the bit.

we use the Varco AR4500 , beats using manual tongs thats for sure.

Yes and no.. not all rigs have an iron roughneck. I think its a great tool, makes for a good trip.
I've worked for years on a rig that didn't have one. I kinda missed that thing.

Work SMARTER not harder :) Still have to get the tongs out for BHA and topdrive connections. Makes trips easy..
