Shaky hands?
I have found this to be a real boon for small PCB and soldering work, much better than the one's with a magnifier and articulated joints (which seem to keep going loose).
The bendy arms can be slid into whatever position you like, and the base is heavy enough to stop it sliding. I have a trembly right hand and it's been a real help. Not bad for just over £7. https://www.switchelectronics.co.uk/products/helping-hand-soldering-pcb-holder
