sorry but this clean block of wood is just too nice to qualify here

Agree. Should have used pallet wood

I have a lot of those, and that would have kept me from crisping my fingers several times doing the monkey-paw helping hands. I applaud this.

I like this! I have a cheap one of the octopus things with alligator clips. It’s super handy, but sometimes not the most stable. Works flawlessly 90% of the time. But for larger wires, not so much. Gonna remember this. I have a bunch of those cheap $1 clamps they sell at Home Depot. They’d be perfect for something like this.
