Yesterday I visited a fellow engraver here in Norway (pkasnes) and he was so kind as to let me try his engraving setup which included a microscope.
I have reached "step 3" in my investment plan, step 1 being the Gravermax G8, and step two the powerhone system. Step 3 is as you probably guessed, a microscope.
I do have quite a limited budget, and I know you'll recommend the more expensive microscopes any day, and I understand that. I have found the amscope boom microscope on ebay. Is this good enough? I understand I'll have to find a barlow lense, and a light source as well... Any recommendations for a newbie?
Thank you so much for your help!
