<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 602310, member: 36"]Sure do - it's easier with a rug magnifier but I've used my 40x loupe when need be. The rug magnifier unfolds into its own stand and acts like a fixed focus if you plop it on top of the piece to be magnified. They're used to count knots, but work nicely for reading marks. It's a little harder with the loupe, but not much. Just hold it next to your camera lens and move around until everything in the field is in focus. Or the bit you need anyway.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
