$70 for some alligator clips. Sheesh.
I just flip the PC board face down, hold it with my left
middle finger, and use my thumb and index finger to feed
the solder.
The only time I really HAVE to hold something is soldering
wires to connectors, and THAT is where having a PanaVise
comes in handy.
I have one of those alligator clip things. They are next
to useless for holding anything properly and stable.
Its like chasing a blob of mercury around.
