Ultimate Electronics Helper || Variable Bench Top PSU With Helping Hands

I have finally completed a long awaited project! This is something that's been churning around in my head for quite some time - close to a year. I started ordering parts for last years Christmas. After receiving these I've gone through several design iterations on both the 3D printed casing and the electronics and circuitry. I have to admit I'm quite pleased with the results!

Introduction at instructables

When working with electronics two tools are pretty much always needed. Today we'll be creating these two essentials. And we'll also take it one step further and merge these two together into the ultimate electronics helper!

I'm of course talking about a Variable Bench Top PSU and a good pair of Helping hands!

The PSU features variable voltage and current so it can be used in any number of projects. It also has a constant 5V output from a USB connector. As you've probably experienced a lot of DIY electronics projects require 5V and some other voltage.

Helping hands always need a sturdy base to keep everything still. This is solved by mounting them onto a power supply unit, which usually weighs a lot.
