Thank you for the reply.

I have one here but it is far too long to use it on my cnc router!

At the beginning I had quite a time to focus as the enlargement is quite big. I had the idea to measure a 3M sponge with pad and it is exactly the height very close to the focus, so I have no problem to focus quickly and this without the danger of hurting the front lense.

I got it off eBay used and it still wasn't cheap. You can find them new from Enco. The adjustment is a little sloppy. Although mine was used I saw a comment on the web by someone else who said there were problems with his when he got it new that he needed to fix.

If you search the web you can find plans on how to build one from an inexpensive binocular.

Hi Craig

Lovely drill press.

By the way where did you get the small centering microscope from.The larger ones are very expensive. It would be nice to use on my cnc router to set the X+Y-zero. Thank you.
