HITTI 12X Magnifying Glass with Light Hands Free, 2026 New Infinite Color and Brightness Desk Lamp & Clamp, 2-in-1 LED Lighted Magnifier Stand for Craft Reading Hobby Close Work(12X Ring Base & Clamp)

I use one of these https://a.co/d/0bNgHoAq, a 12x desk magnifier with a light. I'm 65 and have been nearsighted most of my life. I find that small reverse opening sharp pointed tweezers and very small surgical forceps used for eye surgery come in handy. If the part is large enough to be clamped, I hold the handle of the clamp with a pair of "helping hands" and manipulate the piece while looking though the magnifier. Then I transfer it to the reverse action tweezers and glue in place. It's a detail that requires a ton patience but you get better the more you work with it. Also, if you can get a woman's stocking, stretch it over the mouth of a vacuum hose. Then, when the voracious carpet monster get one of your parts, you can run the vacuum over the carpet and the part will get lodged in the stocking.
