Anything Else Like This "Third Hand Block" Out There?

[Ginsly]

There are a few components that third hands have a little trouble with, and this looks like it might be helpful in certain situations: https://lovemyswitches.com/pedal-port-pedal-building-third-hand/

But not $40 helpful. Yipes! Anything else like it out there? If not, I have some thick EVA foam and could probably cut and layer to make a block...

I use that all the time- definitely worth the price to me. It’s silicon so it’s not going to melt or burn on you. I use it for all sorts of situations- as a stand, a block, to hold a wire to tin, to hold parts in place on the board when I’m soldering, all sorts of things. It’s also got a bit of weight to it so it can hold things in place. It’s just a nice tool to have on hand I think.

It does look worthwhile. Good to know, thx @KR Sound!
