Review: Multiple uses for this tool - LT80 Review - I've used the Carson Metal LinenTest Glass Magnifier LT-80 for several different projects AND some surprise uses. Outside of the normal intended use... I found other uses. Other uses: 1.) If you need to take a picture of something magnified... you can use this and take a picture through the magnifier. This worked well when I noticed an issue with damage on the outside body of a Flamenco Guitar. I Was able to Magnify the problem area and send the picture to the company. 2.) Removing splinters from people's fingers - Weed thorns, glass, or other things stuck in the skin. 3.) I've also used this device to help me see the nut grooves in guitar nuts. Again... other magnifiers can do this... but I found it very handy to place on the area of the guitar and was able to easily see what I needed to see before I started work. Obviously you can do this with other magnifiers... but the small form factor makes it easy. Hey... if you already have it, you might as well use it for what you can! The unit I bought is well made. The folding hinges work well - not too sticky or too loose / floppy. This is the 2nd one I bought... I lost the 1st one and thought this was handy enough to replace it.
Review: very nice unit. - I feel it only magnifies to about 3x but the quality is great and it does a better job than any of the ones that look similar.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ very nice unit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This magnifier is a great unit. VERY well built and sturdy
*by D***R on August 11, 2015*

This magnifier is a great unit. VERY well built and sturdy. Best I have ever seen with the metal construction and all. The ONLY reason I didn't give it 5 stars is due to the lack of a light. To a lot of people this won't matter, but I use it in dimly light places and that makes a difference to me. This unit is VERY configurable. I don't think I will ever use it as a linen tester, but I use it for a lot of other things. Because the base and the magnifier hinge, you can use it to look straight down on things and its always in perfect focus. Or, you can fold the magnifier the other direction and use it as a stand alone hands free unit.
