| Where can I pickup a "third hand" soldering tool?
Where can I pickup a "third hand" soldering tool? I would prefer to pick one up locally if possible, but I'm not sure who carries them? Thanks. |

I've seen them on Radio Shacks site before.....Long time ago though. Looking through the books at work,I seen them somewhere but can't remember. Either MSC,Grainger or Mcmaster |

Thanks guys. I can't seem to find them on Home Depot or Rat shack's website, but I'll stop and have a look there if I don't have any luck at Harbor Freight. I just found one on amainhobbies.com for $15 also, and I do need to order a servo from them so I could go that route if needed. |

I got mine at All Electronics Man, I miss having that place 2 blocks from work, they have so much cool stuff it's not even funny. My LHS also carries them, you could suggest it to them, anyone who's got to solder a dean's on can use one of these. |

Man, I forgot how much awesome chinese crap they have at Harbor Freight! Got myself a helping hand soldering tool with a goofy magnifying glass, a set of T handles for my taps, and a pack of cheap drill bits for less than $14. |
