Hi Tony,
just a comment on the Mantis which may or may not be useful to you. They
are great tools - easy to use, easy on the eyes, and with a good field
of view at lower magnifications. However we find that at 10X
magnification the lack of rigidity of the arm can become a problem, as
the image doesnt tend to stay still. So if the majority of your
inspection has to be done at this magnification, you might have to
consider going to the next level of equipment - I think that they call
it the Cobra or something.
The Mantis can also double up as a radar scope / photon torpedo tracker
thingy. I have seen them in use on the bridge of the Starship
Enterprise on Star Trek - The Next Generation. The cheapskates couldnt
be bothered making their own props.
Regards,
Chris Murphy
