Here's a simple one that many of you may not have thought of. How many times have you needed an extra hand holding something and no one else was around, didn't have a vise or clamp? I have kept this on my workbench for years and use it all the time.

All you need is a pair of pliers and a rubber band

Wrap the rubber band around the plier's handle twice.

And there you are....an extra hand!
