More than capable of handling the easy flat things. Now to the more complex folds like squares where do you hold to fold the part? Do you go all the way to the fold line?

Thanks for all the help. A 10 year break has definitely dulled the limited skills I had

I try to make sure that I will have an easy job of placing one set of tweezers, so smallest to largest folds. I place them at the fold seam.

I recommend using tweezers, when possible. I only use my hold and fold for long bends.
