BugBear has brought up the point of magnification, what do other galoots
use as their magnification tool? I have considered both a set of
spectacles (glasses) from my local drugstore, or perhaps a set of these
binocular magnifiers like these.

Or maybe a magnifying lens combination lamp setup like those used by
electronics folks.

I'm hoping to find something that would be useful for both saw
sharpening as well as examining my plane/chisel edges under when
sharpening them.

might be spending tommorow at Lee Valley learning sharpening.
