Cool, thank you!

I had an extra pair of two-dollar needle nosed pliers, so I made my own bail biters yesterday. It was easily under 5 minutes to make them - as others have said here or elsewhere, just heat to cherry red and bend with another set of pliers. It was really easy to make them, and I think that about anyone could make them as well as they can be made.

They work well enough, but I'm not overly happy with them. It's kind of hard to choose to spend $80 on Handy Andy's, not knowing if they'll be any better.
