McPappy Racing Helping Hands third hand tool

McPappy Racing have introduced the Helping Hands third hand tool. Designed to hold a wide range of items during soldering, glueing, painting or polishing, the two main components are the three-jointed articulating friction arm and the mini vise. One knob completely releases all three joints including the twist on both ends. Each end has the industry standard 1/4″-20 threads that lets you directly bolt on other things such as a desktop microphone mount, GoPro mount, or web cam holder. The mini vise features two polished tool steel rods, and a custom turnbuckle with left and right-hand threads so it opens and closes twice as fast as a screw. Holes in the jaws for the included steel dowel pins allowing to hold odd shaped items. V-slots were machined into the lower vise jaws to hold straight items like screws and rods in either direction. The hobby vise is made from 7075 aluminium for a light weight, heat sink capabilities and to don’t scratch other metals. The tool comes as a single arm item but an upgrade kit allows to make it into a dual arm version later
