What is Reddit's opinion of Fancii Daylight LED 3X Magnifying Lamp Rechargeable with Metal Clamp - Illuminated Optical Glass Magnifier Lens with 3 Adjustable Light Settings & Detachable Aluminum Handle?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I have this one from Amazon. Its 3x, not 5x and clip on. I've had it for about a year and it works well for me when I do 1 over 1 on 28-32 count fabric. It's not the best because you can only adjust it depending on what it's clipped to but it's inexpensive and the LED is rechargeable via micro USB.

I work with a magnifier that i attach to my easel. Makes everything so much easier.

Thanks all, I initially got the idea from Jazza and knew I had to make my own version. I think theirs is probably a little more functional, but I had a blast making mine! Definitely would encourage everyone to make their own!

-EDIT-

I wanted to edit this comment and add a list of some of the materials you see, in case anyone was interested in putting their own set together.

LED Lamp - I like this one, it's wireless, so it operates on a charge, and the light/magnifier unscrews for easier storage. I can also use a 5/8" threading to mount a camera if I wanted to stream or document the process.

Paint Storage Bin - I only used half of one, so I technically could make...another. Phase II involves gluing tiny magnets into each paint holder and then magnets to all of my paint lids, though technically I'd only need twelve.

Small box (upper half) / Medium box (lower half) - I had to add hinges to the smaller one, and also added magnets to the lid to secure it when closed. I had to reorient the latch and hinges on the medium box.

Spice Tins- This was the one that took up the most time, and if I was doing it again, I would probably go with a smaller size, not because I need more tins of dirt, but because they have to be JUST right for the whole thing to close.

The briefcase is a Stebco, here is one, just like it!

Good luck, and thanks again, everyone!

Mine hasn’t arrived yet but I’ll let you know if it’s any good! this is the one I ordered

I use this. I'm not sure how well it would work with a q-snap (might be a bit heavy) but it works with my hoop stand.

Thanks so much!! I got it on amazon. here is the link

I've asked for:

1. Clamp light and magnifier. It's an affordable Amazon one to try out.

2. Art portfolio. For storing finished pieces, I asked for the 18x24 size.

3. Gift certificate for my go to stitching peripheral, 123stitch.com.

Just to give you a second option if you don't want to have the weight of 3 AAA batteries on your nose I'm rather satisfied with the following LED magnifying lamp. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Fancii-Daylight-Magnifying-Rechargeable-Metal/dp/B01MRJ5HU4

If you’re going to do another one, I would definitely recommend a magnifier. The one I got has a clamp so you can attach it to the table, leaving both hands free.

These are Faber-Castell 4 PITT artist pens, I got them at a office works where I live for only $16 but I think the reason I got so much detail into this map was because I used a magnifer Lamp that I got from Amazon

This is the one I got:

Edit: got rid of the massive amount of text describing the magnifying lamp.

Not an Ottlight, but I use this and absolutely love it.

You need better table organisation! You'll both have awful neckache at this rate. Get all the paints you'll need lined up in front of you, a solid light source above you, I've been painting with this LED light and it changed my painting game. Crazy good. I found getting an elevated platform to paint on (plastic tub on my desk) helped with the neck and back ache. Also what do you 2 collect?
