Can anybody tell me where I can find the Enkay magnifier reviewed here? https://modelshipwrights.kitmaker.net/review/2309

I've checked our local Hobbytowns, Hobby Lobbys, Ace Hardware, Home Depots, and Lowes. I've searched online and so far no luck. Anybody know where I can get one? I've a birthday coming up and I've learned hints don't work with my daughter, I've got to give her exact instructions if I'm to get anything I want.

Rodge, did you try Micro-Mark?
They have a few different magnifiers in their catalog, mate...I'll give a look when I get home from the office.

No, I hadn't but I just did. They've got a clip on item that might work, but I liked that review done on the Enkay and if possible I'd like to try that one.

Thanks Kenny. I found that site yesterday also. It's their wholesale site. For example you have to have a tax ID, which I happen to have, but also a $150 minimum. I will email them though and see if they can give me a list of shops or sites that sell their product.

$7.50? Consider it ordered. I'll give this link to my daughter right away. Hobbytown had something similiar that I really didn't care much for and they wanted $30 for it.

Thanks very much.

Update
I wrote to Enkay to find out where to buy there stuff. I got the following reply.

"Dear Roger
You can buy Item No. 2930 at www.hobbytool.com .
Toolfully yours,
Steve
Enkay Products Corp."

Nice to have confirmation. I'm now drooling over some of the other stuff on that site. My list to my family might be a bit longer now.


Thanks all.
