Wait - are you saying the Ideal-Tek PCSA-4N is good, right? Now you've piqued my interest.

Is this suitable for a single person at home, to hold a PCB in place whilst you solder components to it? Worth getting it for home use?

You mentioned Lindstrom and Piergiacomi for flush cutters - I know Ideal-Tek makes flush cutters as well (in fact I think I have some somewhere...), and so does Knipex. But in your experience, are the Lindstrom and Piergiacomi vastly superior?
