I want to make a sliding stop for my radial saw but I can't find where to buy the small magnifier for the scale. At my advanced age I really do need help to see small scales. Anybody any ideas?
 
I have seen the Axminster Stop but as I have made my own to fit my home made fence I just fancied adding a magnifyer as an extra.I would probably fit one to my table saw too if I could locate a supplier.

Good idea Frank, I had thought of one of those but didn't think of cutting one to size.Funny enough I have one on my computor shelf so I will give it a go.

Hi Neil
I actually found a small mag on a defunct globe map in my cellar.I have scribe a datum line with a craft knife and it works fine.Oh! for the eagle-eyes of youth.
