The Helping M

The Helping M is a very portable clamp to help you hold in components during soldering jobs.

I started on this after hand-soldering the 52 SMT components for the HBP :-P

1. There is no need to bend the component wires to hold in the component during soldering
2. Adapts to different sizes of circuit boards: Max about 7 to 8 inches wide
3. With some velco, interchangeable heads allow usage for capacitors, resistors, ICs
4. Once mounted, The Helping M is able to move laterally to press on different components
5. The Helping M slides up and down your board easily too
6. The Helping M also serves as a prop when you flip the circuit board around, to position the board in the right position to solder easily
