I find these pliers really useful for straightening wire. I hold one end of the wire between the jaws of a pair of flat nose pliers in my non dominant hand and I hold the nylon nose pliers in my other hand. I place the nylon nose pliers on the wire, next to the flat nose pliers, and I grip the handles firmly. I then draw the pliers along the wire to remove any kinks and to straighten it.
