Bench magnifier lens

[PeterT]

I was eyeing some on Amazon but they have mixed quality reviews & some play games with lens size vs frame size. Looks like bigger diameter ones get exponentially expensive & lose magnification power (probably a function of the lens itself?). I saw this on on Uline, but not exactly cheap. Does anyone have brand/purchasing leads?

The one I like most isn't available anymore. It has a small multiplier lens on the bottom of the big lens. It stays in the basement shop where I use it most. The one I use in my main shop is this one.

It is ok, but I wish it had the small multiplier lens. I prefer it's self standing base so I can put it wherever I want it.

Yes that's very similar/same as what I was looking at. S10x mag, bit smaller 4" diameter lens. So 4 of those for the price of one ULine model. Hmmmm...

I tried Ebay for used medical ones but they are not common & a small fortune
