Poster Tack for Electronics
If you do any soldering you probably have a pair of helping hands, or some bulky heavy thing like this that can hold your project or components steady while you wire them. They’re useful, but a little clunky to travel with, and often overkill if you’re just splicing a wire or two.
In terms of price and portability, poster tack (a.k.a. poster putty) is a great alternative.
