Yesterday I found a very beautiful magnifying glass attached to a solid steel stand with two arms - each arm is adjustable to different positions and angles. The arm has a clip so sturdy to grip the chip and hold it steady for scrutiny. You can compare or read two chips at the same time with the magnifying glass which rotates in different positions and angles also. Very ideal for 'shaky hands'.

Archie lend me your digital camera so I can take picture for the board to see. I promised to use my new digital Sony on this 'beauty' and send it in for others to see.
