Nice Size and Well Built – Provides An Extra Hand For Projects
I purchased this item to help me hold a strip solder while I was working on projects. The product is pretty simple a weighted base with adjustable arm holding tweezers. Here is the low down:1) The price was very inexpensive when I purchased the item.2) The base is weighted.3) The arm is adjustable.4) It is sized well.5) The tweezers grip until you press on them to release.6) Product appears well made.I think this is a great gadget which I have already used for many purposes. Basically any time you wish you had another hand to hold something you are working on (it has to be something small) then this is the item for you.I would highly recommend.Another Helpful Item:SE MZ101B Helping Hands with Magnifying GlassCompact Straight Extra Fine Point Slim Tweezer

It’s a simple device that just works!
Great third hand for soldering jewelry, or working on electronics. The base has just the right amount of weight to keep it in place and keep it counterbalanced when something heavy is in the jaw. The jaws of the clamp hold the tweezers quite securely with no walk off when tightening. The tension of the cross lock tweezers is fairly strong, yet the action is very easy to operate (even with arthritic hands). If you are going to use these to hold material for soldering, keep in mind that the whole thing becomes a heat sink. I added some carbon fiber to the jaws to prevent some of the heat dissipation, and they work just fine. You could also order other styles of cross lock tweezers to fit into the base it’s fairly universal! Great buy for the price!!

Best Extra Hand
Nice little holder.Better than most of those cheap “extra hands” with aligator clips. But this is really just a clever packaging of two pieces: a base, and a tweezer.The base has a couple of degrees of freedom, so you loosen, twist, tighten to get the right angle for the tweezers. They are quality tweezers with a good grip. There is a slight outward bow, so they will not hold a piece of paper in the middle, for instance. It’s really meant for gripping with the tip. And it works very well for holding items at most any angle. The photo doesn’t show it, but it can even rotate, so that the tweezers open vertically, rather than more horizontally, as shown.I used it to hold parts, wire while soldering, small items under the 3D inspection scope. The best 3rd hand I’ve found — and now I have a forth (I ordered another).

Perfect for my needs
I have only used this once, but it did exactly what I needed it for. It’s got a heavy, cast iron base with rubber on the bottom, so it doesn’t slide around at all. The joints are tight and don’t wobble, and the screw holds the tweezers firmly. Over all good quality. The reason I only put 4 stars is because the tip of the tweezers are very fine so it’s difficult to hold larger things. I make jewelry as a hobby and for gifts, hoping soon to move up into selling in an online store, and for me this works perfectly.

A bit bigger than I expected
The tweezer is larger than I was expecting. I know, right? You think tweezer and you think of something used to pluck the small hairs around your eyes or pick up really small items that you’ve dropped on your hobby desk. These babies are like needle nosed pliers. Don’t get me wrong, they’re still useful (though I haven’t really used mine yet). I mean, a person does need to clamp onto things and hold them for an extended period of time…like when they’re waiting for the glue to set. They’re just not what I was expecting or needing.

must have
I really wish I would have bought this sooner. I love this tool. It is a must have for anyone that solders, makes jewelry, anything that you need a third hand to hold something. I used to have my husband help, but with this tool, I don’t have to tell him what he needs to do, and I don’t have to worry about him dropping an end of bracelet, and having the beads go all over the floor. The tweezers are tight enough to hold, but not so tight that it damages anything. The base is weighted which makes it so much easier to use. Highly recommended if you are thinking about it, just do it, this tool will save you a lot of headache in the long run.
