Slightly O.T., But I've been sort of tuned in lately reading
about what you guys all think about stereo microscopes for
doing tiny SMD PCB work. At relatively low magnification.
Around 40x. Here's my question, I am needing a good microscope
to use to work on, and inspect old Edison cylinder phonograph
styli, both for recording and reproduction. These are sapphire
jeweled things, and are highly polished. A good look at them
requires at least 100x, and I have looked at them a couple
of times at 200x and 400x, and that is really a good view!
Any ideas about where I might look for such a tool that would
go from maybe 100x, 200x, 400x?
Thanks, Chuck Richards
