Now that I am on the far side of 45 my eyesight is taking a nose dive.
Many many moons ago I used an Optical Comparator when working for GE.
I find myself wishing I had one on a regular basis nowadays. Mostly for measuring small details or checking angles and such. The occasional radius.
After watching a vid from Suburban with them using the quadra check DRO I can say that I would like one of those. If for nothing else the cool factor.
I'm looking for some does and don'ts for buying a used machine.
What brands to stay away from and what things to look at.
I'm thinking a 14" unit would do what I need.
Anyone have a nice one they want a new home for?
Thanks
Adam
