You may choke on the price, but THEY ARE WORTH EVERY PENNY.

I have one of those - a competitor's version, I think. It is a
FANTASTIC indicator holder. Great idea- using it for soldering!

I got mine when somebody here alerted to it's being on sale - for $65,
IIRC (not MSC).

I've gotten a couple like that for about that price when MSC had
it in the monthly sales flyer. The first one was because I had read so
much good about it. The second was because the first was killed by
fire-induced rust, along with a number of other things which were in the
wrong place.

Enjoy,
