The fork is designed so the user can place it on his hand and remove it himself.

Users comments
The fork is used to turn things like spareribs, vegetables or other pieces of meat in the frying pan. The fork is designed to prevent the user from burning himself. It is extremely useful!

How to make
The aluminum attachment can be bent to the appropriate shape by hand. The fork and attachment are joined with pop rivets. The barbecue fork was purchased at an ordinary store.
