Coolant Pipe Helping Hands

This is a stand with a few helping hands to support working on small parts such as PCBs or multirotor helicopters. Mount points for the coolant pipes have been 3D printed.

The original idea has been featured on [hackaday](https://hackaday.com/2017/05/12/cheap-helping-hands-just-add-time/). However, I had a wooden base and some different tools than mentioned in the article. So, this is the design I ended up with.

I used 3.5mm x 20mm TORX wood screws to mount the printed parts on the base. Other parts required for building this tool like coolant pipes and alligator clips can easily be found on aliexpress and other similar websites. It simply does not pay to print these. In total this project cost me around 10$.
