Hmm, Interesting... well done. It eliminates having to hold the resistor with your fingers and affect the results with the skin lowering the overall resistance. How do you zero the Ohmmeter? (where)
Interesting and inventive. Having been in electronics too long (I got my General class Ham license and a 2nd class FCC radiotelephone license both in 1961) I have a set of alligator clips that I can use with my multimeter test leads and just clip them on to the resistor for testing.

Wow! you must've seen it all then. I'm still trying to fully wrap my head around the concept of voltage and current
I used to just set the resistor on the desk and then press down on both leads with my meters probes, but i got tired of flicking resistors into that black hole where all my lost socks are.
One thing though: that resistor looks to me like the color code is Brown-green-brown, which would effectively read 150 ohms, not 750...
Well...must be what it says....
Or the meters far out of calibration....
Well done,
But forget the patent,The P&P machines do this automatically.
Zener diodes are far more difficult to determine !
I just used it to build a ClassicAPI VP26, and... even though it seems overly elaborate and unnecessary it probably saved me 1 or 2 minutes.. so.... yeah... It is overly elaborate and unnecessary. But I have no regrets
