Wearable Magnifying Glasses With A Light Or Two?
neophytte replied to inveterate retiree's topic in Workshop
When my wife was starting her eBay shop, she bought a bunch of the ones like Ember has - I'd have to check whether we still have them, but if you want a pair, I think we were selling them for $10 - if anyone is interested, let me know and I'll dig them out and supply pics. Cheers Richard -
No probs, there was a good display this year, there were also a few good displays last year: 2010 Pics Cheers Richard

My son and I went to the WA 2011 Super Model Car Sunday, here are some pics for anyone interested: Pictures Cheers Richard

Your $10 kit looks better than my $2 'Made in China' car: Build Cheers Richard

There is a link on OzBargain about how to (legitimately) get some software for free: http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/32719 Not sure if better(?) software means it makes it any easier .... Cheers Richard

Thanks - the trip is a surprise for my birthday ... I hope to pick up some slots to make it worthwhile Cheers Richard

It looks like we're visiting Melbourne in a couple of weeks - where are the 'slot hot spots'? Cheers Richard

Wow, that looks great!!! Cheers Richard

No, I do that too ... Cheers Richard

I'm pretty sure I've seen this before, but maybe in HO scale ... ? Cheers Richard

When I was selling stuff on eBay (mostly scrapbooking stuff my wife picked up, and never used), lot of the addresses were in the country - so maybe for some people, buying at an inflated price is cheaper than a trip to the city? Don't know if it's the same for slots? Cheers Richard

Phil, Finally, something I can help you with!! As Ember suggests, use a tripod, one of these will do the trick: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.2332 Next, move the camera away from the subject, and zoom in, rather than moving the camera close. Last, use the 2 second timer so that you are not physically pressing down on the camera as you take the picture, when you are focusing so close, depressing the shutter can sometimes move the camera around, causing it to blur. HTH!!! Richard
