Third hand for soldering / Lötgnu, remix

thingiverse

First of all, this is a remix and all credits go to Wolfchild who created https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:378926 which is on its turn based on http://eigenbaukombinat.de/invasion-der-loetfanten/ I liked the straightforward design, but the springs of my clothespins were too long. So I replaced the inlet for it 2 mm to the back and made it slightly smaller. Since I was there I also added a stabilizing arc at the back, which prevents the beak from shifting to the left or right. Because the original design will flip over if you try to open it with one hand, the back of the base is extended. Also a small tray at the front is added. The original has a few more types for the base. This remix is compatible with those. Happy soldering :) PS. I really don't see a resemblance to a Wildebeest or Gnu, but this is a remix so I kept the name that way :) Look for more tools and the like here: https://www.thingiverse.com/Coat/collections/coats-toolbox
