KOTTO Helping Hands Soldering,Third Hand Soldering Tool PCB Holder 4 Arms | Helping Hands Crafts Jewelry Hobby Workshop Helping Station Non-Slip Steel Weighted Base

I’ve gotten ‘third hand’ devices for sewing in the past so I knew when soldering became a new curiosity, the same concept would really come in handy for it. This thing is more like a third/fourth/fifth/sixth hand though.Very easy to assemble, comes in a pretty small box, nestled in foam cutouts. The steel base is a nice heavy weight, definitely not going to get pushed around easily. The rubber feet are balanced so there’s no wobble. The arms are strong but not difficult to bend like some tablet holders I’ve used in the past. I love the tightening nuts that attach to the alligator clips; you can use these to loosen the clip, swivel it to the right angle then tighten it so it won’t budge once more. Very handy. The clips are very strong and the teeth will hurt so definitely use the black rubber caps to protect skin and circuit boards better.It’s absolutely terrific for soldering but it also works great for clamping and glueing with other sorts of DIY projects and crafts on a small scale. I don’t solder a whole lot so it’s good to know I can use it for many other tasks. For the price and soldering, it’s likely all you’ll ever need unless you have much heavier/larger or really micro projects. For most other tasks, this is perfect.

Easy to assemble. The metal plate at the base is heavy, which prevents me from accidentally moving it if bumped during soldering. The metal plate also captures blobs of fallen solder without splashing too much, I dont worry about burning the rest of my work station. The helping hands are good quality, the arms are rigid and strong.

This works quite well. Yeah, the arms have a slight memory, but it's manageable. And the arms are strong. The unit is solid. The clips hold well. I can recover the clips with shrink tubing - one of them is done that way already - and it grips better than the rubber does. The clips turn (very important), and they're easy to lock in position (also important). I've used 3 arms at the same time, today, on one task (I use this for building model ships). And I can see myself using all 4 arms for some work. The base is heavy - it doesn't move about IOW. Glad I bought this.

good quality, sturdy construction

AMAZING. I'd buy another if they had wider clasps and a round clasp option. Great for working on flat objects.

These clamps on bendy arms are so useful! They come in handy (pun intended) for painting and building plastic models in my workstation. The whole thing was super easy to put together. The arms are stable and don’t move after set in place. I also like that they are spaced far enough apart that they don’t get in the way of one another. Also, the weight is good and it doesn’t move or slide when adjusting the arms.Give yourself a few extra helping hands and buy this stand.

This product is absolutely amazing the magnet strength alone on it works awesomely it's very stable when sitting on the workbench it's like having four little extra hands the clips hold pretty strong it is very versatile the size doesn't take too much area up on the workspace it's very safe to use and it gives you very good accessibility to your project that you're working on and makes it pretty much hands-free very easy to use once again I very much enjoy this product and would highly recommend this product to anybody that does any sort of soldering

Adjust - fit the wires and parts - solder. Perfect for most projects. Have done heavy duty high amp wiring and fine delicate electronics wiring. I have even used them to hold parts in place for super glue.

I bought this to hold fishing lures while I paint them and it has made my life so much easier. Its a great tool for a great price. the base is nice and heavy so no worries about tipping etc. The alligator clips are not cheapo ones - they are pretty good quality and the arms are nice and flexible yet sturdy enough to hold things in place. If you're on the fence, I say go for it.
