Make Shift Magnifier

[blights69]

So there I am making another gift for someone when I get to the lettering and realise it is so small I can`t actually see it not being the owner of a magnifier light or such I scratched my head n then came up with this quick answer to get out of trouble as I promised it to be ready today so had no time to go shopping for one. I am glad I bought the clips I used now :0

Quick thinking !

Good save.  Necessity is the mother of all invention as the old saying goes.  You clearly prove that!

I don't think you used enough clamps.

Definitely a good example of "Necessity is the mother of all invention".

I had to get a magnifier light from the beginning. It helped me a lot.
