Extra arm / prehensile tail and metamagic rods

[Podok]

As a metamagic rod only needs to be held, could you do this with a third arm or prehensile tail to keep both hands free?

Yes.

The tiefling tail has a weight limit, but vestigial arm should work fine.

What is the exact weight limit of the tail, and where is that info listed? The rod in question we're estimating at 3lbs

I was mistaken. The Grasping Tail feat and Prehensile Tail racial feature both just say small items, and exclude weapons. I thought it mentioned a weight limit, but it does not. My B.
