Thanks Tony! This is one of those why didn't I think of it sort of things. I've certainly have suffered from the embarrassment of running a bead completely off the groove so to speak. Sometimes this is in the middle of the day outside so maybe this will not help my old eyes much, but I need to try something.

For a similar need I bought one of these magnifier visors with an attached light and I have to say "Why didn't I do this long ago?".

Thanks Wizard. Yes, I think we’ve all had that happen at one time or another. BTW, those headlamps are good, when you’re spray painting, too.

Thanks Crusty. I use one of those when I’m soldering electronics. Very helpful.

Mine helps close machining too (I watch for oils and fluids getting onto the lenses), and it improves my layouts and drilling holes.
