Magnifier/Light - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

OK, I have finally accepted that I am , indeed, getting older and parts of me don't work as well as they used to.

Being further irritated by the fact that I have to stop and wipe the tears from my eyes after focusing on my blade for long periods of time, I have decided a magnifier/light is warranted.
Free standing or saw mounted would be my preference, but would like any feedback you have ...price, merchant etc. What works for you ?

Thanx

Robert I purchased this http://www.grizzly.com/products/h3107 and it works wonderfully for me. I had it mounted on my first saw and now it's on my Dewalt. I just had to modify my stand a little, but wouldn't be with out it. I can easily swing it out of my way when I choose not to use it. While your checking out the site, type in H3106 in the upper search bar and that will take you to another option. I would of went with this if my shop space had allowed it.
