You have to log in to the groups.io website, go to the group you want to look at, and click on the files link. Which should be near the bottom of the list on the left side of the web page.

Re: Optivisor

 

That's going to depend on your eyes, and what you need to make them happy. You might want to try these:?
https://www.harborfreight.com/head-lamp-magnifier-58788.html They're $15, and have 6 different plastic magnifying lenses. They'll scratch easily, unless you take exception care of them. Figure out which lens(es) you need then get the Optivisor(s) you need.?

You could also try reading glasses from Dollar Tree. They're $1.25 a pair. They will be closer to your eyes, so may not work as well as the HF set.?

From what you describe, I would recommend 3x or 4x, based on how close you want to be.? 2x too little, 5x too strong.? I have acquired one of each power over time.
As far as another brand, I have seen BBC programs with experts examining very expensive art -- they all use Optivisors.

The magnification lenses each have a focal length.?

How close to your face will be the work? That will help you pick the closest lens.?

Or you can buy copy which comes with all lenses.

Alternatively,? Grobet makes a nice optivisor device. Looks very modern and even has a LED light built in.?

Re: drilling small holes on a unimat

 

An image of some of the chucks I use on the SL and now the U3, top one is std SL M12 chuck, next is a small Jacobs one on an M12 to fit SL, next an extension taper to get me over the cross slide on occasions next is the hand feed with small Jacobs and finally the Dremel have been using it held in the large chuck for fine drilling work but I will now make a M14 back plate to fit the U3.
(by the way the dremel chuck is an M7 fitting as std)
I have M2, M3 and M5 spot drills and a good range of center/centre drills, I also use a full range of machine/clock taper reamers.
?
One of the next jobs will be some die holders to fit the U3.??
