    Is the PulseGraver underpowered for flair cutting?

    I may be able to help you with the settings to be able to get more power from your PulseGraver. Please give me a call and I will help you to maximize your power. You can get a faster response and more power with some of the modes. My phone number is on my website.

    Porch Pirated PulseGraver

    One of my customers in the Denver area had their new PulseGraver stolen off of the front porch on Friday August 4th. Apparently, there was a crew that went through the entire neighborhood, opened boxes and dumped the packaging (of all the stolen stuff) in a neighbor's yard - so we know it's not...

    New Video camera help

    Do you have a Leica A60 and need a video camera or do you have a trinocular scope and need a camera? If you need a small video camera for the A60, an inexpensive video camera that is compact should work well. I have an old canon video camera that I hook up. Auto focus is a must and if it...

    Need A Better Microscope!!!

    As for lenses for the Leica A60, the .63x is the most popular from my experience. I also sell a lot of the .50x - it depends on how tall you are and what you need to see. The magnification is inversely proportional to the working distance so, yes, you get more room to work with the .50x lens...

    Engrave In September 25-27

    I'm bringing some equipment and will have gravers if you want to try the PulseGraver. If you can bring some of your own gravers then you will have an even better test of the tool.

    What specs objective lens are you using with your Leica A60 Microscope?

    Sorry about the scattered numbers in the first post - I can't seem to get back to edit it. Here are the working distances for the different objectives and their respective magnifications.

    What specs objective lens are you using with your Leica A60 Microscope?

    The .50x lens should give you about 100+mm on the lowest magnification setting. Objective Working Distance W/ Leica Adapter A60 Head120mm – 4.7 in 5x – 30x .75 132 mm – 5.2 in 3.75x – 22.5x .63 159 mm – 6.25 in 3.15x – 18.9x .50 209mm – 8.11 in 2.5x – 15x

    need info on A60 scope without objective lens

    Tim, you should have more depth of field with the objective and spacer than with just the scope alone.

    Microscope depth of field

    Unfortunately, you can't decide which eye tube is which. Leica has the right eye tube as the shorter depth of field/tighter focus eye and the left eye tube is the more in focus eye. The head does rock almost 180 degrees and I do have some people using it almost completely horizontal and...

    need info on A60 scope without objective lens

    The Leica A60 has 46mm field of view with no objective lens (on the lowest magnification). At the lowest magnification with the .63x lens I have in my notes that the field of view is 78mm. I'm not sure if the 78mm measurement was just with the .63x lens OR with the .63x lens + lens adapter. I...

    Microscope depth of field

    Of all the scopes I have sold I have only received 1 back due to the person having such a different prescription on his eyes that the scope didn't work for him. If you have a question about this give me a call and we can work it out so that if the scope doesn't work for you I can take the scope...

    Hello! Yes, the patents have been filed.

    need info on A60 scope without objective lens

    The objective lens increases the working distance. It also decreases the magnification. The two things work inversely to each other. If you can get along with the 122mm working distance out of the box - go for it. You can always add a lens later. I probably have 75% of people break for a...

    Microscope depth of field

    The fusion optics from Leica is based on 2 different sets of glass/lenses. Scopes are usually set up to either 1) have small, very defined depth of field AND have excellent focus or 2) have a larger depth of field, but the focus isn't quite as crisp. Leica took one set (think eye side) from...

    Using Dot Punches

    I cut the Vallorbe beading tools in half and then use them with my machine (PulseGraver). If they are shorter they are easier to use under the scope with a machine/hand piece.

    LED light ring with adjustable polarizer ring

    The Leica polarizer that I sell is specifically made to fit the Leica LED light. I haven't seen Leonardo's light, but my guess is that it will not fit. The polarizer works like a charm on the Leica LED light - fits right on and is easy to use. It makes getting that perfect photo or video much...

    LED light ring with adjustable polarizer ring

    On my setup (Leica) the diffuser is taken off the LED light and replaced with the polarizer.

    LED light ring with adjustable polarizer ring

    I have a polarizer on my scope (it fits on the LED light). It helps a bit when I'm working, but it really helps when I try to capture pictures and video under the scope. It depends on what you need. The polarizer does a great job on cutting down the glare especially in stone setting and...

    Polarizing filter for Leica 9I

    If you have the Leica LED light then this polarizer fits on that light. The diffuser that comes with the Leica light screws off and the polarizer screws on it its place. There are 2 glass pieces each with the polarizing lines embedded. The first is over the LEDs. The second piece of glass...
