    Default looking for Magnifier

    Hi guys I'm looking for a magnifier accessory for the ex30. I particularly want the one with the in built light. Can anyone point me in the right direction where to find one.

    Also my saw vibrates quite a bit at full speed, I checked the back to front movement of the blade and it seems to be ok. The least vibration is at 85% speed. Does anyone know what I can do to stop this vibration.

    Default Vibrations.

    Hi Section 1,
    You could try Sheet Lead. Drill the hole, then make 2 cuts to make a Keyhole.
    This saves you from taking the bolts right out. You just undo the Bolts a bit & then slip the Lead under.
    You could even Double the Sheet.
    Rubber doesn't work, nor does wood, but the Lead does.
    Plumbers have the Lead.
    Regards,
    issatree.

    I have found after trying different things that a loupe is the best type of magnifier.

    Hello Issatree

    You need to be careful when selecting a light. The one I bought didn't have a strong stand. As a result it wobbled when I moved it causing me to wait until it settled down. This is very annoying. I have tried to make it firm with limited success. There are lights with good strong stands such as the one from Hare & Forbes and the price is right as well
