My only problem was getting them separated from each other after arrival. Some soapy water and "squishing/squeezing" them around in it worked great

These are a tool(s) that you'll find other uses for as well, holding lens elements while cleaning, as a stand for holding parts you're working on, etc.
I can now often use these to unscrew some particular parts that, in the past, I used coated pliers ends and spanners on but still scratched. This has been helpful in getting repairs done without scratching nicely painted/coated camera and lens parts.
