Hi, all, just wanted to bend your ear on how you all go about magnifying your tooling to assess the condition or size etc... Normally I take mine into the shop where I work and use the comparitor, but lately, that's getting to be a pain so I'd like to pick up some sort of small microscope comparitor type unit. Any suggestions on what to look for?
I guess I could pick up a used microscope but there are no witness lines or "gage" lines so I guess I could use it with a scale when checking against a cutter?
Also thought of using the mach 3 video window with a webcam, but I think I'd really like to have a stand alone unit.
Please let me know what you are using and thanks for your input..
Dave
