Making a helping hand that actually helps
Wednesday, March 31st, 2010I've seen some helping hands offered by various shops and I'm not impressed at all. Their price is usually dirt cheap and I can say from experience that you get what you pay for. The only viable solution is to build a kickass helping hand for yourself. Fortunately, Instructables has some really great tutorials:
- Ultimate DeskSquid / Helping Hand
- Third Hand++: A multi-use helping hand for electronics and other delicate work.
- Desk Squid - "Helping Hands" improved.
I've been trying to get the parts for a while but it's very challenging to source the hoses. If I won't be able to get them from Hungary then I'll order them from a foreign country.
