Hands free small item holder
Great for holding items while painting, drying or soldering. A workshop must-have for any r/c enthusiast!
Hobby King please add a magnifying glass attachment. I have bought a little plastic magnifying glass which i will hold with one of the three grippers. Don't use this on a polished wooden surface as the base is a little rough.
they were in stock but they sold out again obviously. if you guys want one then put it on an email alert and get one when they come in instead of complaining.
Very good product. Usefull. All 360 movable arms and extentions. The base is so havy to hold items, but you have to fix it in a tbale for better results, to prevent slippering.
I bought one and I must say that it's really nice for the price. Like most of the stuff, you might want to buy one and just wait until it comes back in stock.
They are incredible tools for soldering. The screws do come undone sometimes from twisting the holders around and the shipping is a little much if buying alone but if you have room in your cart without jumping to the next tier in shipping I can't recommend them enough!
Have no Idea about stock. Quality not too god, but OK. some joints are too loose, but you can arrange them to be fixed. Anyway, this helping tool have not to be made with an airspace quality. Works well and must have.
Two months !!! I have ordered this since MAY 10 and even thought they had it reservd for me they gave it to someone else and I am still waiting for it to become available again....!!!!!!!
This is the one thing I've ordered from hobby king that I've been disappointed in. Make sure you don't over tighten the wing nuts. They don't get too tight before they bend the metal plate they press on.
I recommend that HK web developers implement functionality that would be not answer the question proposed to her and just disappear from the list of questions of our accounts, so we can do a better job. Could also be filtered the questions where the best answer already as been chosen. Unregistered users (Customer) should not be able to ask questions because they could not choose the best answer and give the 20c to someone.
I have made a few bombs for my fighter planes, gives them a nice look. And I could see this item being usefull to hold it while painting etc. So im inclined to belive this item is aimed more at me as a client then say, a terrorist.
Could be true. I bought this and few days after I received it I noticed a black car, that I don't I have ever seen before. Inside there were two guys wearing dark sunglasses. And the weather wasn't even sunny at all.
As for the item, I have been using it for soldering battery connectors, or engine connectors so far, and it works quite nice for that. No more burned fingers *) The base isn't THAT heavy, but it has flat surface, so you can easily clamp it to table, or put in vise if you want to make it more stable. I suppose it would also help with glueing or painting/airbrushing.
I recommend that HobbyKing remove the comment about the "bomb maker". Other people might not take this as a joke. This makes a negative impact on r/c hobbyist. That's just IMO.
don't remove the comment, i live in a bomb terorrized country and i dont see it in bad eye, i like BOMBS they do nice BOOM ! there are bomb hobbyst, nothing wrong with that, and what about fireworks, stop using them cos they go BOOM! ?
Not absolutely essential for soldering but does make life a lot easier and lets face it soldering is hard enough as it is without making it harder.
Hobbyking has a real cheap price but make sure you take into consideration the shipping weight on this item, as it adds quite a bit to the actual price by the time it lands at your door.
