Very Well Made - Superb Helping Hand
If you need a 'helping hand' like a modeller or jeweler perhaps, then this is an excellent place to start.Very well made with a robust heft about it and highly versitile. It can hold irregular shapes from about 4mm through to 130mm so pretty much anything you might need to lock in place whilst working on it. I've enclosed a few pictures so you can get some feel for the size.Made from steel so nice and heavy so unlikely to move around when using it. The machining is excellent with no sharp edges and a generally high class feel to it.Overall, an excellent helper if you have a hobby that deals with small objects.

Excellent tool for small work
Excellent tool for small work. I have been struggling for years, to support small items securely,but gently, whilst working on them. this item fits the bill perfectly. It is built as I would have expected, if I had requested one from our machine shop. All parts are solid feeling, and the base is heavy enough to be free standing, although 3 dome head woodscrews are supplied, to fasten the base down. I believe the head can be removed, and then fixed in a vice, but I have not tried that. I would love to know where to buy spare pins, as I'm bound to lose the 8 supplied pins eventually. But that does not detract, from what is a really well built piece of engineering.

Excellent for watch repair
I repair and service mechanical watches as one of my many pastimes. This device is simply excellent at holding watch movements very securely and at a continuously adjustable angle for convenience of access. Many watch movements are not uniform in shape and are best held by a triangular arrangement of the pins which is easy to achieve with this work holder. The pins are hard steel so I slip a short length of neoprene tubing (sold by model shops as model engine fuel tubing) over each pin, which provides a soft surface to avoid marking the watch movements. Brilliant device, robust and nicely made so should last forever. Highly recommended.

Solid quality machined versatile tool
It is the absolute solution to keep any shape of item steady in order to build detail and paint. Odd shapes, inner ring of tank turrets, no problem. A very sturdy weighted base guarsntees item won't topple (tried this with a sizable piece of resin) Well engineered and quality build

Very useful tool.
A very versatile and useful tool. These are invaluable for precision painting, ultra delicate cleaning (watches& jewelery) and other precision and delicate manipulations. They are a model makers must have tool. Quality is very good and will last a lifetime. All metal construction so can be used as a soldering jig or stand. All in all a very good and worthwhile investment.
