| Yep, I use a magnifying glass attached to the 'Helping Hands' thingy, and also a 3X graphics arts glass, and others. They are also useful for checking small areas after sanding etc, to ensure there are no gaps, deep scratches and so on. BTW, is the '1rg' in your username a reference to the Royal Greenjackets?

  | Same here, but without the helping hands thingy which would REALLY come in handy at times.
