Review on Aven 17010 Adjustable Circuit Holder by Robert Hoge

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I'm not sure why all the negative reviews.

Almost perfect for me - should have ordered years ago - with "helping hands" and a vise that works but isn't as flexible. It's a good size - big enough for any board I work on, metal base, 4 screws to assemble. Hasn't been used - at the moment my only concern is that the levers are plastic and the set screws don't hold the platter very tight. This can cause the circuit board to twist during operation. Will be updated if problems arise. Ok, update, although I haven't had any problems yet. I've just used this on a couple of small boards (Dollar Converters and Wemos Mini Pro), let me repeat my original opinion. Cute! Next, print out some add-ons for it, but yeah, if you're looking, buy it!

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Some difficulties
