Preferably, at least one of the upper and lower plates are substantially flat. Preferably, both of the upper and lower plates are flat and an optional rubber pad may be placed thereon. Rubber teeth for gripping an object may be provided on the rubber pad. A safety latch may be provided for preventing inadvertent operation of the gripper.
