So what do you use besides a micro scope. And I realize everyones eyes are different but say after corrected to 20/20 for english scroll work on shotguns what power magnification are you using?

i use nothing at all, a magni-focuser, a14or so inch focal length surgical loupe set (too heavy for long periods of use), or a scienscope stereo zoomer. what i use depends on what i'm doing at the time. my fave--- the scienscope would be the last i'd part with.

I use a #10 Optivisor for all my cutting. I have a 'scope and sometimes use it to make sure lettering lines meet as they are supposed to and will use it to sculpt an eyeball on an inlay but that is about all. I just don't like the rigidity of working with the 'scope.
