TheElementOfCreavity 63 March 14 Share March 14 How would an earth pony use scissors in mlp? Like, a Pegasus could use their wings and Unicorns use magic but how would an earth pony do it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiggWheelsManning 13,711 March 14 Share March 14 Navigation with the teeth would work to open and shut them. Special thanks to Emerald Heart for the banner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheElementOfCreavity 63 March 14 Author Share March 14 I can see that, I can also see them using their tongue to ensure accurate cutting, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawnshine Wonder 3,295 March 15 Share March 15 Perhaps a different type of scissors is needed for this purpose, one that could be safely used by an Earth Pony. They do not have hands or wings, or telekinesis Something similar to a paper cutter guillotine would work. But instead of only cutting paper it could also be used to cut fabrics and wire. There's more than one way to solve a problem like this, being a Pony in Equestria isn't as limiting as some people may think. Had the show gone into realistic detail about this, they would show Ponies being creative about these limitations. An Earth Pony could ask a Unicorn to craft them these guillotines to cut paper and other common household items. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Insight 361 March 15 Share March 15 Some time ago, I saw an image trying to explain how ponies can manage weapons for a mod called "equestria at war". The explanation seemed funny to me, so now I like to think that ponies have biomagnetic hooves for complex tasks such as using tools. (FiM S4 possible spoiler) Spoiler Maybe it's canon after all: Rainbow falls Horseshoe They can wear a horseshoe without using nails. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharpWit 2,879 March 15 Share March 15 Specially shaped for the mouth, like shear clippers with a spring to push them back open. and a soft material around the handle that could be gripped by hooves. Probably rubber today, leather on early varieties. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
