"Helping Hands"

I bought this gadget ages ago (probably 20 years or more), mainly to help when I was soldering wires etc. Then it got put into a box and forgotten about. I dug it out a few months ago when I started blipping as it's very useful for holding objects for macros. It's certainly very adaptable. You may notice that it's still holding the wilting snowdrop which I blipped yesterday.

Maybe all fellow blippers have one, I don't know - if so I'm sorry to bore you with its picture! I wondered if they were still available so I Googled it - and yes they are, eg on Amazon. However I note some bad reviews there - maybe they're not as well made as mine was, still going strong after all these years :)
