    Hey Tom, I used the amscope over the lathe after I bashed in my 2 front teeth using a loupe. I had to turn the head 90 degrees and cut out a slot in the amscope base to allow the lathe tool post holder to get close enough, I had to build a platform (out of wood) to get the height right, also to give it a bit of a angle to where it was comfortable to use. I did all of that in order to continue to use the light on the amscope. the commercial inspection scope was the cheapest and easiest to accomplish exactly what I wanted over the lathe, otherwise I am sure you could rig up your own boom but I wasnt smart enough to do that..Paul, dont be jealous, be happy that you have inspired me, thanks for all you guys do, William
