Aha - good call.
I have it assembled on my desk at the moment and the general concensus is that it's the coolest thing in the world, ever.
For much good-natured hilarity, try sneaking up behind someone and snapping one of the clips shut on their ear.
You're with stupid. ▲
That's the one I replaced - it became intermittent, then I lost the threaded piece that holds the bits in - without it it's a paperweight and you have to replace the whole thing.
At least with the Antex you just jam the bits on
Red ones are better.
Ah - then best avoided!

Too late
I'm confused - which one of you's doing the soldering FFS? Honestly, I don't know whether you're Arthur or Martha.
Edit: be careful where you put stuff if it's not being held by the third hand gizmo. Whatever you're touching with the iron gets hot and might leave a burn if it's on a wooden table. Luckily I only melted noddy placemats that nobody wanted.

We both are!
Will be searching for a Noddy placemat equivalent before I get down to soldering. A friend managed to drop a hot metal silver ring onto her carpet whilst we were making jewellery. That made a pretty, singed in, pattern. D'oh!
Well while it works it will work very well - and maybe I was just unlucky !Too late

Has "The Great Fire Of London 2 : This Time It's Electrical" been avoided . . . ?
