[quote=Edchris177][quote]Does this leave any black tape residue on your jib?[/quote]
I should have clarified. I used white on one side & canary yellow on the other, just to see which one holds up better. One other thing Andrew, it was not the regular electrical tape. The rolls say "heat resistant", so it may be OK in your warmer climate. If you can't find it, let me know, I'll send you a couple rolls.
If you wrap it correctly, there should be no exposed sticky side. This heat resistant colored stuff does not seem to be near as gooey as the regular black stuff.
The gentleman used a sky blue, but uop here I have only seen red, white & yellow.

It is not the same as a loupe. It is 60X, & thge eye releif is very small. You need to hold it between two fingers, quite close to your eye. The focal distance is also obviously short, as it is such a short instrument. You need the objective within a mm or two. That being said, I can certainly get you one, or trade you for some of your junk!
I know what you mean about the postal strike. A fellow wants a nacra mast ball. I brought it with me to Shanghai, but they wanted $35 to mail it back to the USA, going to look into FedEx tomorrow on the way up to the lake.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by Edchris177 on Jun 23, 2011 - 10:21 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
