That's a cool tool and better than anything I currently have for soldering. It's definitely going on my Christmas list.

Nice Review. That looks better than others I have tried. The last similar stand I got off of Amazon, all of the arms were floppy and essentially useless.

Nice setup, a must-have in my opinion! Ape, i think the extra alligator clip is to help get your mind right before you work on things :)

Looks pretty handy Ape. Seems like I always need at least one more hand.

I like it. I do a lot of work on tube and solid state guitar amplifiers, guitars and other instruments, cell phones, plus my ham stuff. Over the last 60 years I've had a lot of third hands - this one just could be the last one. It's in my Amazon cart.

It’s pretty rugged compared to others I have used in the past 👍

I use a Pana-Vice and now a microscope camera designed for PCB work. I know how to work with them to do most things from boards to connectors. They've worked well for a long time, but once in a while I'd like a good flexible arm to hold things. For my sort of work I don't think this is worth the money, but it may be for others.
