Have one of these on my bench, Tektronix surplus. Glass lens and circular fluorescent bulb.
If you want to try it, PM me your Addy and I'll send it up.

Thanks, was good to meet you Sunday, I'll put the light through its paces and get it back to you when I get back down there sometime this summer.

Since developing cataracts, I have simply switched to loading larger calibers. OK, not always possible. This is a good thread for those of us who are not aging as gracefully as a good vintage. Will have to check some of these magnification units out, as DW is at Jo-Ann more than home, and I'm on Amazon more than with her (secret to successful marriage?). As to aging in general, I am slowly coming to peace with it, trying to adopt the attitude of being delighted to be anywhere.

Lol, my inner child is having issues with this, daily.
