    Mantis Elite 'scope Experience?

    Jeremy, I was investigating and reading some articles about the microscope you mentioned and must say that I was not aware of that kind of microscope. When I read "digital display" in your first post I I thought that a screen cannot reproduce a 3D view and wrote my comments about... BUT, after...

    Mantis Elite 'scope Experience?

    By the way, this is a huge sub-world so I just told you almost anything about it. If you are interested in knowing more about this do a search in the www looking for microscope types... You will be amazed for sure.

    Mantis Elite 'scope Experience?

    Oh, yes Jeremy. But it is not perfectly correct and there is an explanation to this. There are monocular microscopes and stereo microscopes. The first ones are used to see microscopic things with lenses that work almost in contact with the object that you are studding. Actually there are...

    Mantis Elite 'scope Experience?

    Jeremy, Stereoscopic vision is based in two points of view so you must see with both of your eyes to have a sense of depth. Nothing else will work like this. You will see a flat image on a screen what it is really bad for engraving. This kind of microscope/loupes are intended for inspection or...

    Help, please: Massive Steel Background Removing

    Help, please: Massive Steel Background Removing

    Rokkn, I think for the look of your drawing that you have the design digitalized. You may have the background removed by a CNC milling machine in any workshop around you. It is a very simple 2.5D milling work that will save you a lot of hours. Then you can make all the fancy and artistic things...

    Overseas Payment:

    You can make this in the Post office. Another options is Western Union... but be prepared to pay huge fees. I (fortunately!) lived many years, as well as John B., in both Continents and can assure you that PayPal is the best option. I made a lot of operation buying and selling things without...

    Overseas Payment:

    PayPal is the best option. Just take in account the fee that PayPal will charge you. If you charged a small fee in your work PayPal may suck all your profit. Your fellow will not pay any fee to PayPal. Also do not forget to quote the shipping. They are quite high to Europe being the USPS the...

    New year’s greetings

    Hi Anne, I remembered a work I did some years ago analyzing the area of some burins shapes involved in the act of cutting at different depths and though that it might be interesting for you to see. Of course, the bigger the area the more force required. Also, as you are interested in wood...
