Right now Amazon has these on sale for $10.

I'm going to use it on the mini lathe or the mini mill for some extra light. The mic holder should hold a flashlight for spot lighting. The center of the ring light is empty and should hold a magnifying lens pretty well. The clamp holds OK unless you cantilever stuff too far, might have to beef it up in that case.
Of course you could use it for selfies... GTA does not judge

It would need a better clamp. I dont think that would do it. Also my lathe doesnt have a usb. Knowing me id get it wrapped up in the chuck while doing a selfie :

OK, I invested another $1 for a dollar store magnifier and made a holder for it. It also reaches my mini-mill so I may add an air nozzle to one of the other arms.
The clamp is OK but I may add a c-clamp or run a screw though it. Right now it runs off of a powerbank but one of the dollar store USB plugs will be more permanent.
Big money being spent here, but it does help my aging vision.
