Precision is everything in jewelry making. Whether you’re a beginner crafting your first silver penda

or a professional creating intricate fine jewelry, accurately positioning tiny bezels, bails, embellishments, and other small components can be one of the most frustrating parts of soldering. That’s where the Spider Hold

-Down Tool changes everything. This innovative jewelry soldering aid makes it effortless to hold and position even the smallest pieces exactly where you need them — without the constant readjustments that often happen when solder melts. Say goodbye to shaky tweezers and the limitations of a traditional Third Hand tool, which is often too rigid, hard to maneuver, and absorbs too much heat. Designed specifically for jewelry makers at every skill level, the Spider excels at:

• Securing delicate components on pendants and rings
• Holding bails perfectly aligned on earrings and necklaces
• Positioning fine embellishments on custom silver or gold pieces
• Holding things that the Third Hand can’t
• Compensating for shaky hands
• Quick and easy setup

It saves time, reduces frustration, and delivers cleaner, more professional solder joints every time. Original Spider
Best suited for larger jewelry pieces with backplates over 1 square inch (ideal for most handmade pendants, brooches, and statement rings).
Includes three stainless steel legs angled at approximately 90°, 45°, and 22.5° for maximum versatility. Spider Mini also available for smaller-scale jewelry projects.
