Adam Savage's Favorite Tools: Wearable Magnifiers!

[@rtwpsom2]

Adam, you should try the ones that are similar but are more eyeglasses like. I had the same problem and I didn't really like the headband types but there is one that uses the same cheapo lenses but is is worn like eyeglasses. They are far more comfortable to me. They are on amazon.

[@ick5353]

If anyone's looking for the same headband magnifiers that Adam is using at the end (with vertical band support), these are the ones: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071R1NDBT

[@ReverendTed]

One nice thing about properly-calibrated magnifiers is not just seeing things better, but having better posture while you're doing it.

[@zacchambers2418]

It looks like the jeweler's loupe the link goes to is not one that can be held on the eye as in the video. Is there one you guys would recommend that is like the one shown in the video? In the field I'm practicing, I need both hands.

[@jeric_synergy8581]

Now $62.

[@ReverendTed]

One benefit Adam didn't mention of that last set is that you can wear it without taking off your existing prescription eyeglasses. Not having to take your glasses off and set them down and pick them up makes a huge difference in how likely you are to use your magnification when you need it.

[@stevenm6775]

I have the last item he showed, I like it but it seems to show double vision and sort of forces me to look at one of the two images. I think it’s because it doesn’t tilt inward so that both eyes can see the item in the center of view. Does anyone know a remedy or what I’m doing wrong? It only does it when two lenses are combined.

[@tonyb83]

Please provide a link to the last magnifier, the one you recommended, thanks

[@GG-kc6ie]

[@cliqboom1088]

Adam, my wife is an aesthetician and her facial machine came with an adjustable arm magnifier that is about 10" diameter with high magnification and an LED ring lamp installed. It is great for mounting to the work table and getting very high magnification (it is made for looking at pores) without wearing anything. If you are interested, look up facial steamer with magnifying lamp. Thank you for the continual quality of content.

[@jimwilliams1536]

Dude, as a hobby jewellery maker, you just sorted out a massive issue I've been having with magnification solutions. Thanks tons.

[@GoldTopSlinger]

Adam, thanks for this video. My slow-creeping blindness has been difficult to handle, as things have reached the point where I can barely watch videos (blurry to the point of bad headaches) and can't read a book, forget instructions in tiny fonts. The last model you were talking about just arrived via Amazon today. I was able to read the tiny instructions all the way though with no strain, and I've been watching KZbin for a few hours. Comfortably. It's life-changing, And so nice to get the advice from one of my favorite TV personalities. Again, thanks, Adam. Be seeing you clearly.

[@patiencefalters9024]

What product are you referring to?

[@osunightfall]

You have made me so happy. I may never be the model maker you are, but after going through the tool selection process in my head a few years ago, I landed on "I bet those headband magnifiers with the bifocal action are going to end up being the most useful in your day to day". And they were, I use them to paint miniatures and assemble models. I still use them constantly and they're still great.

[@fred5968]

Thank you Adam! Your recommendation on a headband magnifier helped me cut through an array of confusing products and options. I found one similar to what you demonstrated and it's exactly what I need to help deal with my vision challenges.

[@Mr.Missdirection]

4 years laters and this still teaches me more than I thought I needed to know when getting my microbio headset. Thanks you

[@taramaescott8733]

I bought one of these on Amazon at the beginning of the pandemic, so that I could do the adult paint-by-number kits that take forever to complete. The spaces are sooooo tiny, my eyes could not handle it! I got these and found that not only are they great for painting tiny things, but also for beading, and all the other little fine point projects I work on. I got prescription glasses earlier this year and can even use them with my glasses still on! Definitely one of my best purchases during the Pandemic.

[@brocktechnology]

Optivisor is the most important search term when looking for this class of object, presumably not mentioned because it's a trade name.

[@LostInSpice]

I've been using the cheap, unlit version for decades and I love the things, especially as my eyes get older.

[@nelsonparra3797]

After paying $269 for the optivisor set with the lenses, I have to say that I feel a bit ripped off. Yes the Optivisor has excellent glass lenses, but the quality of the visor itself is not worth what they charge. The Pelican style case they come in is unnecessary and overkill and is probably worth more than the visor. Also the Optivisor lenses are a huge pain in the neck to switch out so you can’t easily switch lenses. The stupid light that come with it is useless and a piece of junk. It comes with an Optilupe that adds 2.5X magnification but if you use it you can’t change lenses without using a screw driver. I’m buying the cheapo one that Adam shows here in the video and 3D printing an adapter to use the Optivisor lenses.

[@chrisgriffith1573]

SO... perfectly Covid 19.

[@TheTalonts]

OH how I wish you had done this a few years ago! I have EVERY version you have on that table save the first fold-out. I went through the same process when I needed to do some circuit board repair on my cars, and needed a focal point far enough away to avoid the heat of the soldering iron but not so far that it made soldering difficult. I just went through the process in 25 days instead of 25 years. I came to the same conclusion - I have a cheaper version of the last with a smaller headband system. It also has 2 lense mounts. It works VERY well for what it does. I still use the others from time to time, though. And having a decent range of reading glasses also works well for casual, quick use. Dollar stores often have them, the lenses are obviously cheap in that case, but for quick and dirty work where you don't care if they break or otherwise get damaged, because they cost ONE DOLLAR, they're great. As for sorting large LEGO collections...yeah. I went through a buying spree in the early aughts in the SF Bay when Costco had Iris carts at roughly half the cost of other places. It helps sort the large categories. Adding trays/boxes in them helps too. They're great because you can tear them down into individual drawers and re-stack them to the height you want, so I custom fit them to the room at the time, floor to ceiling. When it came time to move them, I just shrink-wrapped entire stacks, reconfiguring them at about 6' tall, and hand trucked them to/from the moving van. But when you spend thousands of dollars on JUST the storage for your LEGO, it's time to admit you may have a LEGO problem. "Hi, my name is Talonts, and I have a LEGO problem" "Hi, Talonts!"...

[@austinpriebe302]

I would like to add that a "Jeweler's Loupe" is a 10X Triplet. It is the best balance of magnification for most things in jewelry, gemology and the like. It is also the maximum magnification allowed for grading clarity in diamonds. Triplet means it's made from 3 lenses stacked to correct the image and keep it sharp around the edges. Yes jeweler's use all types of magnification to work including headbands, microscopes and loupes of every magnification but if you ask a jeweler to pass the loupe, you are getting a 10X triplet.

[@FaceForward]

I've been using the exact model you recommended for years and I love it! Surprised you didn't mention the adjustable light, I find it immensely helpful even in my well lit workshop

[@romanykemp9042]

I was getting closed to buying a set of the "medical" loupes glasses - the main complaint that they were a bit heavy on your nose. I was wondering if anyone had done a mode - say attach it to a "baseball" type cap - to distribute the weight - and I land on your review. I was convinced that your recommendation was the way to go. Not $24 - but $37 - but still cheaper than the loupes glasses I was looking at. Being able to "stack" magnifier lenses is a big plus...Thanks Adam. You be the man!

[@johnd942]

Love this man, his work, and his down-to-earth honesty.

[@dmbandnick]

I’ve been struggling with those gooseneck magnifier lamps for years. Just stumbled on to this and already pulled the trigger on a pair. This is a game changer. Thank you!

[@fmhummel]

I am a dentist and I still use the 400 Euro magnifying glasses I had to buy for dentistry school. They are good, I really like them. But I also bought some Chinese magnifying glasses that were 50 Euro and include a light (which would be another 200 to 400 Euro for my other glasses). While they are considerably worse, they are defenitely not as bad as the 350 Euro price difference would make you think. They are absolutely useable and I treated patients with them for weeks when I broke my other glasses. If they were, let's say 100 Euro and made from more sturdy material, I'd say they would be the better choice. So if you want decent magifying glasses for mini painting, they are something you might consider. However, even though I'm used to working with magnifying glasses on a daily basis, I never use them for miniature painting. I don't know why.

[@CLU1968]

Thanks for the tip. My problem which needed this type of solution is using soldering iron on PCB's and small wires.

[@Bob-Is-A-PotterNow]

Have been using and loving the budget headband magnfier for years when hand soldering surface mount electronic components. Invaluable!!!

[@jamesmartinez991]

Working with electronics 30+ years i have to agree Adam. Those magnifiers are the best all around. It won't replace my stereo microscope but all around they are useful. I wonder about the extended focal length one for working on my mini mill/lath. You have to get really close and i prefer not to put my face right next to chips flying off.

[@paulosborne6517]

Exactly the same clip in lens system as I use! The great thing is that they have a very natural field of view - it is comfortable to wear them for extended periods and at high magnification, without feeling like you've been hit with a spade. Plus, as you say - they're so affordable, there really is no excuse to squint and struggle.

[@AntiHeadshot]

Just bought this exact one a few weeks ago 😅. Good to know my coice was the right one.

[@TheChiefSmeg69]

How pleased am I that Adam showed off the exact set of magnifiers I’ve been using for 3 years - he never even showed off the work light that they hold too!

[@messyhair42]

I sew a lot, so magnification is useful on occasion. I have a cheap jewelers loupe to inspect the tips of machine needles. the best thing I have is an articulated fluorescent floor lamp I keep hovering over my sewing machine, but it also has attached both a clip for instructions, and about a 4" wide plastic lens for magnification with a very small area, like a bifocal lens, of high magnification, I can't count the number of times that's saved me while trying to sew by hand (untying some ungodly knot or threading a hand needle) Thanks Adam

[@sh0ckvalue989]

Just started soldering and was frustrated with my 20+ year old "Helping Hands" from Radio Shack. This was super helpful as I was wary of such a "cheap" tool.. But I've just ordered your recommended tool! (P.S. Years long fan. Spent many hours enjoying MythBusters with my young daughter.)

[@Tom-vk6ij]

Thanks, Adam - Perfect timing, I am an armature model maker and was looking for a magnifier - was looking at all the same things you showed order the exact headgear you showed. Thanks for saving me a boat load of money!

[@ThatGuyShannon]

I have a set just like the one he uses... with the ability to use 2 lenses at once and let me tell you, it is far more handy than you would ever think. Yes you can combine them, but the fact that you can switch between (2) magnification powers so quickly is a lifesaver. And they are Super inexpensive. I have 2 pair - I think the exact pair he has and another pair I bought off aliexpress. (btw, both made in China). Love the wide viewing area.

[@FeniksGaming]

[@jessicajohnston5693]

This is perfect for me as a novice seamstress! I work at a drycleaners and the more experienced lady retired. I am having a hard time keeping my lines straight. So far I have found using only my dominant eye helps. Maybe the magnification will help? I plan on taking classes at the nearby community college... Thankfully the other seamstresses in town are nice and helpful.

[@SimplyDudeFace]

I went through the same iteration. Hands free, built in magnification, but when it came down to it the silly $15 magnifying hat I got off amazon with the flip up lenses works the best.

[@terpcj]

I concur. The cheap flip-downs are great for all sorts of close-up work where you need to see detail but not in front of your face for either convenience or safety. I still use a loupe at times for detail checking, but for actually being useful for getting stuff done, it's the flip-downs.

[@stephenw4285]

Thanks Adam. My wife has issues with her sight. This is going to be a great help!

[@Foxtrot1138]

I'm finally ahead of the curve on an Adam tool video for once! I have a headband magnifier similar to this. Mineb is a little bit more unwieldy and the lenses aren't as large, but it's great for painting minis etc

[@trevorfitzgerald4996]

Thank you for researching magnifyers, sharing your findings, and posting this video.

[@Rickles37]

Always a pleasure to just ask Adam one stop answer

[@orangelion03]

Let there be light!! You forgot to mention that those magnifiers include a decent LED light. I've used an old Bulldog magnifier with similar lens arrangement, and I added a big LED headband light to it which made all the difference in the world! The setup was a little bulky and I would often bump it against my bench light. I decided to check out more recent offerings and purchased the one you are recommending. Lower profile, lighter, the over the head band is an improvement, and brighter light. I keep an old Optivisor in the garage, and as good as they are, one comes to appreciate the peripheral vision offered with newer designs.

[@countzero99uk]

I bought a set of those with the box of lenses some time ago, I allways liked them. Glad to know im not alone.

[@tinozaharia9062]

I was taking a break from scrolling for jeweler optics. I will stay with the model that I have, the same with yours white lenses. Thank you for that and for so many others.

[@johns7734]

I love my magnifier hood. However, my favorite is a simple pair of +3 diopter reading glasses. Unless I'm working on fine pitch surface mount electronics, +3 readers do everything I need. Plus, I wear them a little down my nose and they work just like bifocals. I can look over them at my computer and down through them at my workpiece. Three pair for less than $10 at Walmart! (Get the wire frames. They last longer.)

[@TheTalonts]

The same, but I use 1.0 most of the time. I mostly leave the 2.0 and 2.5 in the soldering kit.

[@jeric_synergy8581]

Never shop at Walmart, they suck. Union-busting, town destroying monsters.

[@wobblysauce]

This...

[@ericlenorsk2476]

Found the same advice in a comment on hackaday. I suggest to try in the shop the diopter/working distance that feel the more natural for you. Or buy two different one: reading glasses are so cheap. Just, real glass is more durable. Everybody working with electronic should have a pair (in a case!) in the tool box.

[@Olumin37]

As a watchmaker I mostly work with eye loupes. When I have to work on small movements for long periods of time, I have a vintage Olympus stereo-microscope that lets me quickly switch between 10x and 20x magnification.

[@SevenDeMagnus]

Thanks sir Adam. I just ordered one (different model, it seems to now have 3 lenses)

[@amarti1270fl1]

just what I was looking for my head was spinning with all the choices that are out there will give them a try

[@doncarlton4858]

I try to avoid using magnifiers unless I really have to because an old school machinist said you would become so dependant on them it could degrade your vision. But when I do need one I use one similar to the last visit a few years ago I got an LED light kit. The visor is hands fre and so is the light!

[@cubemissy]

I know this is an old video, but I wanted to share my solution. I wear bifocals, and I cross stitch. When I get a new glasses prescription, I ask for a second one where the bottom portion of the lens is magnified to what I need to stitch. (I take my fabric in with me). The top portion is set for pattern reading. That way, I don’t have to fight my astigmatism while stitching.

[@gadreem]

Adam, just the tool I am looking for, I am fighting with the same issues, thanks.

[@FBNdude]

The one you finally recommend is the type I have; glad to know I settled on a winner. However, the strap on mine is headache inducing, so I will probably need to 'makerize' it for added comfort.

[@robertkees6048]

I'm not a model maker but I have a few small repairs I have to do on several 1/18 diecast cars, originally I bought a mag glass that sets up and sits on the table. But that was really problematic, the range you see is very small, and you can't really see your hands or how they relate to the subject. I suspected this might be a better way, and well how can you not trust a Myth Buster and he's right they're cheap, so I'm glad I saw this. Thanks Adam.

[@davidbakker-wester113]

I have those! The last model I love them! 2x mag is the most useful for general small work, 2,5x is ok but more gives head aches because the lenses are good but not perfect. If you wear glasses put the magnifying lens in the front slot, more room and less distortion and higher dept of field.

[@tomlevier3615]

I have that setup. The multiple lense options are great, plus its cheap. Added bonus, most of them come with a mini LED light which really helps!

[@flyingardilla143]

I use reading glasses for close work. Having a couple different magnifications helps depending on the type of work. They are inexpensive enough that it's not a big deal to replace when they get scratched.

Maybe it is just serendipity but this is the exact answer to my question on the Discord! Thank you so much! The spiders I work with are exceedingly small, so having a good, portable magnifier that I can use to examine them in more detail than "this little spider is... a little spider" will be really helpful. Especially when it comes time to determining their sex. Also, for my next project, I plan on working with bigger spiders because gosh these things are fiddly.

[@Chris_the_Muso]

I was so short sighted when I was young, I didn't think those things did anything at all. I had better close vision when I took my glasses off: at least or even better than putting one of those uncomfortable magnifiers on my head. I should have trained as a watchmaker or something, but that was right at the time that digital was starting to take over so it's not a career path that even occurred to me. Now I'm in my late fifties and I'm losing that ability to see really close, so for (more than) a few years I've been struggling with this. I think for general use I can recommend some cheap reading glasses with a much greater dioptre than what your optometrist wants to prescribe. They are really cheap and you can buy them at the supermarket. For greater magnification this looks really good, so I'll probably look at getting a set. They are essentially the same thing but with much greater magnification.

[@Chris_the_Muso]

@jaxonriddle Ah, don't take it for granted because it doesn't last forever. I'll probably never need to do more than take my glasses off to read fine print, but I really miss the ability to see very close when I want to.

[@Zarlax]

You probably knew this, but some welding hoods have a slot to slip in one or two “cheater” lenses. They’re effectively “readers” with up to a 2.5 magnification. I have an Esab Sentinel A50 that I added a 2.5x and a 1.5x (high/low) set of lenses. Made the world of difference when welding with thin metal and 1/16” electrodes. I got lasick forever ago so up close work suffers without readers lol (can’t look over/under the lenses anymore).

I had a set of those, or something very much like it. I found them to be just a little bit too much pressure on the bridge of my nose.

[@rickseiden1]

I work with electronics--Arduino type stuff. I'm very near sighted and wear bifocals. The only way I can see what I'm doing when I'm soldering is by taking my glasses off. I tried the headband magnifier, and it didn't work for me. I just couldn't see what I was doing unless I got really close, and at that point, I might as well just take off my glasses and go without anything. I just bought one of those digital magnifiers with the 3-4 inch screen. It should be coming in the next few days. I hope it helps.

[@WShawn]

After seeing someone wearing them in a video earlier this year I got the kind that are more like glasses that have foldable ear pieces and sit on your nose . Yoctosun. They magnify well, but I have to wear them over my regular glasses, and my nose starts hurting after a few minutes of use. These headband versions look great, but the less-expensive ones appear to be sold out on Amazon.
