Laserjamb FastCap Little Hand HD 3rd Hand Support System, Set of 2, 16.5-Inch to 22.8-Inch, Rubber, Multicolor, 3HAND14

As someone who loves tackling DIY projects around the house, I recently added the 3rd Hand Jack to my toolkit, and it has quickly become one of my favorite tools. I stumbled across this product when I needed to repair my undermount kitchen sink that had fallen. Here’s my review based on my experience using it:Ease of Use: One of the standout features of the 3rd Hand Jack is how easy it is to use. The adjustable height and sturdy construction make it a breeze to set up and adjust to the perfect height for whatever task you're working on. I bought this to work on my sink. I didn't have another person to help me and this product made it so easy to do alone.Versatility: I've found the 3rd Hand Jack to be incredibly versatile. It's not limited to just one type of project or task. I've used it for everything from supporting ceiling panels during installation to creating a temporary workbench extension. The ability to extend and retract the pole and adjust the head makes it adaptable to various situations.Durability: I'm impressed with the durability of this tool. The construction feels solid, and the components are well-made. I've put it through some tough jobs, and it has held up without any signs of wear or weakening. This gives me confidence that it will continue to be a reliable tool for years to come.Safety: Safety is always a top priority when working with tools, and the 3rd Hand Jack doesn't disappoint in this regard. The anti-slip rubber feet provide stability on various surfaces, reducing the risk of accidents. The locking mechanism is also secure, ensuring that the pole stays in place once adjusted.Value for Money: I think this thing is a steal. You get two of them for $36 at the time of writing this. Its durability also means it's a tool that will last, making it a good long-term investment for any DIY enthusiast or professional contractor.In conclusion, I highly recommend the 3rd Hand Jack to anyone looking for a reliable, versatile, and easy-to-use tool for their DIY projects. It has certainly made my life easier and has become an essential part of my toolbox.

Muy buena calidad y livianos para la instalación de gabinetes y otros usos

Wish I had taken a picture, but these little jacks were wonderful. I bought a second set that are much taller too.The little jacks were used for installing upper cabinets. The only thing was that you could not use them for cabinets that didn't have a base cabinet interior them, like the cabinets above the oven or the refrigerator (which is why I had a second set). They worked soo much better than having someone hold the cabinet in place. I even used them to jack up the sink a little but so the counter could go under the lip of the edges on the sink.The only wish list item I have for these little jacks is that I wish the little pads screwed on, instead of slipped on. The reason being is that the pads can come off rather easily, if they manage to stick a little to something, or if you pick them up by the pad (you should pick them up by the pole, to be clear). These were pretty great for uninstalling and reinstalling upper cabinets, when the base cabinets and counters are already in. If not. You have to buy a different size.Now, I purchased them at a slightly higher price, but it was within a different dollars of the standard price. Spendy, but so worth it. There was a LOT less blood in these cabinets as opposed to the last cabinets. These jacks would making it much easier for someone to use for cabinet installation by themselves (still awkward, but MUCH easier).Again, they jack the cabinet up into place, so that it's more stable when you screw it into the wall, but they are the shorter ones, so be sure you buy the size(s) you need, when you have your project lined up.

Purchased these to supplement the lift box I built and have been using for the better part of 20 years installing commercial and upper end residential cabinetry. I wanted a system that was lite and easy to use for small installs. The Fast Cap Little Hands HD are a perfect fit for this application!Well built with plenty of capacity to support large commercial P-lam cabinets, stable enough to trust while fastening the wall cabinets in place, quick adjusting to get the load to the proper position saving time on the site while still lite weight enough to make them very easy to pack up and transport!Overall an excellent product and well thought out...with one exception!This brings us to the reason that I gave the Little Hands 4 stars instead to 5 and the major flaw in the design of this product! While the Little Hands DO have a threaded fine adjust shaft on the bottom of the unit, there is no corresponding pivot for the top pad to make small adjustment up AND down by simply twisting the shaft of the unit! If you need to make a fine adjustment to lower the load, the only way to lower the top pad and the load on it is to release the pumpjack lever, there by DROPPING the load in most cases multiple inches and starting over! I can tell you this can be quite unsettling with a 100 lb. cabinet overhead!!!! Turning the shaft of the Little Hand with a load on it will basically result in the same drop of load!I came to the conclusion that this product was too good to simply send back and was really close to what I was looking for...so after a little thought and a call to Fast Cap I made a small modification that has effectively solved this issue and given the Little Hand the capacity to be fine adjusted UP and DOWN with out releasing the pumpjack lever!Basically, I fabricated new inserts for the top of the movable pump shaft/pad, bored to let the top pad spin freely under load making the bottom threaded shaft usable! FastCap confirmed that the Plastic inserts are compression fitted and easily removed with a couple blows from a small hammer, (same procedure as the older 3rd hand models outlined on the Fast Cap site), I made my new inserts out of Hard Maple since my experience/talent lay with wood fabrication and not so much in metal There may be an advantage to using metal but the Hard maple seems to be more then adequate and standing up to well! Two roughly 1 1/2" lengths of 30mm dowel/rod, (I used a 1 3/8" hole saw to cut the rounds and sanded them to a snug fitting size), then bored a 31/64 hole for the shaft. I inserted a metal plug, (nock out from a steel electrical box since it was readily available), in the pad hole to keep the pump shaft from wearing into the pad and pressed in the new wood insert!This simple and quick modification has completely changed the usability of the Little Hand and I would love to see Fast Cap simply add an extra insert for this purpose...easy fix!Cheers
