Dental Magnifier Glasses a MUST Have Accessory for the Bandsaw Dentists Surgical Loupes

I found that a pare of Dental Magnifier Glasses or Dentists Surgical Loupes was a fantastic way to get an up close look at the line i'm following when making cuts with my bandsaw. In this video I talk about why you need them and then show the difference they make in viewing the work on the bandsaw.

I asked my dentist a few years ago about binoculars for working on pinball machines she said I needed a license to buy them, thank you for your help.

Glad I could help

Also handy with carburetor assembly.

[@dazecars]

they would be outstanding for that

I just started using cheaters for reading, but I haven't used them in the shop yet. I am definitely going to give these a try given the longer focal length. This seems like an excellent idea!

[@dazecars]

So I too have only just started needing cheaters for reading but I also love them in the shop when working on things. The dental glasses are better for running equipment where I am stationary and a consistent distance from what I'm working on, but cheaters are good for everything else.

Hi been a while since I tuned in and so glad I did. Great suggestion since I’m 78 hrs. Old with only one eye.

[@dazecars]

these glasses make all the difference in the world

[@paulshermet535]

Great idea. I learned from a guy using a scroll saw that people, like me then, try to push the blade sideways to make a small correction in a curve. Instead, you steer the work so the blade is cutting straight towards you, not twisting as much or being force sideways.

[@dazecars]

there is for sure technique in using a strait blade to make a rounded cut

Thanks for sharing this tip

[@dazecars]

My pleasure

[@stevemarschman3202]

Oh, I need these! I have the same issue with my old General band saw. Nothing worse than an aluminum chip in the eye.

[@dazecars]

They are fantastic and can be used for way more than just the bandsaw.

[@aguycalledlucas]

I would like to try these for small parts assembly

[@dazecars]

I would think they would work well. To me a little bit to get them adjusted properly but after that I have been nothing but happy with them.

[@patrickbeaumier8616]

Nice trick. 👍

[@dazecars]

Glad you liked it

The blade guide on the left is 1/4" from touching the blade! You were complaining that the small blade will flex when cutting a curve, but you might want to tune up those blade guides. The blade also does not seem centered between the guides. You mast may be crooked. (never a good thing LOL). My DoAll saw cuts radii very easily. ---Doozer

thanks

[@markhedquist9597]

Shoot. 30 bucks? Ordered!

[@dazecars]

exactly!!!

[@joell439]

You're such a cheater 😂😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣. Headed now to Amazon with your provided link to pick up a pair........ Thank you

[@dazecars]

My pleasure, you will love them.

[@clementihammock7572]

Oh yes, esp. for old techie, that really helps a lot. But those China made Dental Glasses are using poor quality rubber temper, after one or two years, it get sticky and becoming a bit of annoying.

[@dazecars]

good to know. I have had mine a little over a year and so far have not had that issue but I also live in the frozen north and my shop stays fairly cool so maybe it's a temperature thing? Also could have been a bad batch on yours. I guess time will tell. Either way even more expensive ones are likely Chinese made so its more likely about price/quality and has little to do with where they are made.
