Magnifier for Rod Wrapper and Lure vise

[STRETCH1]

As I get older I find myself using a handheld magnifying glass when wrapping rods or building lures. I looked on Amazon and there are a million different magnifiers that I could clamp on my bench and move over to where I need it. Does anybody have a recommendation on which one I should look at?

Maybe one with a built in led light.

They have them that straps to your head, you don't need a bench.

Personally, I just got a pair of 3x reading glasses from a local big box store. I have very good lighting over my wrapper so I had no need for additional lighting, and the stronger readers come in very handy for some of the small text you find on regular household goods packaging n such.

This was the one I used when I had given up bass fishing for fly fishing for a time and was tying quite a few trout flies down to size 32. I agree that it works really well. The built-in light is a big help as even with good lighting, a magnifying glass without a light will cast a shadow and it always seems to be in exactly the wrong spot.

I use really powerful readers for wrapping and other related tasks. Cheap and easy and you don’t have to move anything around or worry about affixing anything

I use this one. I like it because it has a flexible goose neck which is easy to manipulate to exactly where I want it. I use the small stand that can be moved around my work space when wrapping guides instead of clamping it to the bench.
