DO I get free Ginsu knives if I order in the next 5 minutes?

Pretty lame. It's a magnifying glass. Can I post a link to my site for people to buy dollar store crap. I could use the traffic.

Phillip. If you're a maker. Wouldn't you already just own a pair of helping hands (google if you don't know what they are)? Anything stuck to the end of your thumb is going to wiggle, making it harder to see.
