[Elecraft] Repairing Circuit Boards - sort of OT

[Fred Townsend]

In the factory we normally used 1/2" rubber mats (mildly conductive of
course). There are few boards that will be damaged if placed directly on the
mat. For those we used Panavise fixtures.  Google will show many kinds.

I recently repaired a KIO3 board, replacing U1 to restore serial port
operation.  It worked, but in the course of doing the job it was annoying to
contend with the circuit board skittering across my work surface.  Now I
have another KIO3 to repair, and I'd like to avoid the hassle.  What do you
folks use to hold a circuit board in place flat on your work surface?
