Hi, I have recently started modeling again after being away from the hobby for quite sometime and I am trying to get some of my tools and fixtures updated. I was hoping that someone might be able to suggest a decent magnifier if you could. I have a round 4" one that I am using now, that also has a florescent bulb. It is the spring loaded draftsman type, that mounts to the bench and it does a pretty good job. But the lens gets in the way when I'm trying to work really close up with files, or detailing with paint brushes etc.
I heard that there are some "headband visor" clones on Ebay that do a really good job but I have absolutely no idea as to what to look for, as far as which magnification power or manufacturers brand name. I would appreciate any help, or advice that would help me to find something that could be used for basically anything that needs to be done during kit assembly, detail painting, etc. .. Oh, and something with a light is a must.
Thanks for any help
