Already having bought - & used for several years - the smaller, more general version of this, I thought this would be handy. It's excellent & the two together even more useful. They can also act like a third hand tool. Really good for keeping parts & wire steady while soldering so helps makes neat efficient joints. Having thought this might be handy to have, it's become one of my go-to tools. I rarely do any electric work without it now so it's pretty much essential on the workbench.
