Second soldering hand.

Second soldering hand.
This instructable is so easy to make, so there is no need to go out and get one of those hands free helpers, The best thing about this instructable is that you are reusing computers that do not have to go to a trash dump. Also show is the original unit that I made a long time back.  At the end is a short tutorial on how to solder.

This project will be used in connection with the podcasting (http://www.instructables.com/id/Podcasting-tools/) instructable so that in case people ask me how I made it, I can refer them here.

Update: This unit is also great for holding metal thermometers when cooking. You do nt have to hold your hand and or arm over  a hot pan or pot to wait for the thermometer to get the correct temperature.
