Especially when it’s not a one-off build, but a series of small-batch or one-off setups that require a lot of hand-wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI’ve got plenty of alligator clips. But they’re always a compromise—flimsy, awkward, or just plain ugly on camera. And I need this not just for working, but for showing the process too. For you, and for myself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat’s how the idea for these 3D clamps came to life. Fully articulated and lockable in any orientation. Upside down? Angled? Straight? No problem. It made soldering way more comfortable—and filming, a breeze.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA bit about the design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the core are carbon fiber tubes I had left over from another project. They called for grippy, reliable clamps—and I went through three design iterations:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst version: O-ring rubber tension. Holds, but too shaky.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecond: magnetic grip. Better, but not quite there.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThird: ball-and-spring detents. That’s the sweet spot. Locks the board firmly but lets you insert it effortlessly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base is a thick metal plate, with the clamp held in place by a strong magnet. Stability? Rock solid. I printed all the black parts in PLA Carbon—stiff, strong, and sharp-looking. The yellow knobs are ABS for a bit of texture and contrast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"height: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/makerworld.bblmw.com\/makerworld\/model\/DSM00000001435058\/design\/575c8a86-6d94-45b5-a23b-5a7de680f628.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"height: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/makerworld.bblmw.com\/makerworld\/model\/DSM00000001435058\/design\/742abfd9-05e7-4ba8-96f9-3b5d1ecd12d9.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"height: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/makerworld.bblmw.com\/makerworld\/model\/DSM00000001435058\/design\/a618506f-296a-4c4d-ab18-82a07e208f00.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"height: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/makerworld.bblmw.com\/makerworld\/model\/DSM00000001435058\/design\/8ae10970-f531-4eb4-8f9d-cf83755448c3.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"height: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/makerworld.bblmw.com\/makerworld\/model\/DSM00000001435058\/design\/eee386b7-ae48-4ddc-9192-c86b3ced4711.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"height: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/makerworld.bblmw.com\/makerworld\/model\/DSM00000001435058\/design\/68cf8592-4eb1-4429-a214-26debe9a86c9.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"height: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/makerworld.bblmw.com\/makerworld\/model\/DSM00000001435058\/design\/9a6b6e59-cb48-486d-941a-7f15c8164502.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"height: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/makerworld.bblmw.com\/makerworld\/model\/DSM00000001435058\/design\/ff51bce0-bf05-4b80-ac3c-748578772b2d.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"height: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/makerworld.bblmw.com\/makerworld\/model\/DSM00000001435058\/design\/9367444b-9a7c-4c3e-b442-e47f532da993.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"height: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/makerworld.bblmw.com\/makerworld\/model\/DSM00000001435058\/design\/62d18e93-3119-48e3-b764-c0db124fff56.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy I like it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst, it’s reliable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecond, it looks good on camera.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThird, you get full access from all sides.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFourth, it’s quick to make—no complex parts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd most importantly: it’s versatile.
