Light And Magnifiers

[ezdays]

If it wasn't for magnifier lamps, I'd be working in G scale instead of N. I have an array of magnifiers, but let's start with the big ones. I have two work areas near my layout, each one has a swivel mag lamp that I use constantly. This photo shows where the bench on the right is taken up with my current project, the pinball machine. The other bench is used usually for building structures since it is close to all my paints and other small tools. I have two more of those lamps, one behind my office desk and one on yet another workbench where I work on my guns and electronics. I use them all constantly, not only for light, but to see small parts. Just this weekend, I had to strip a gun down to replace a broken firing pin and I would not have done it as easy as I did without the aid of that lamp.  The same goes for every building on my layout.
