Hi Ron,
As my grandson would say,

"Awesome".


I'm using larger print, because you also must have a problem reading emails.

I think it's great how you've adapted to your handicap.

I knew a blind man who could do just about everything. He would work in his shop in total darkness.

He even built a Harpsicord, that most people with sight, would have a hard time to match the quality.

Do you use the eyepiece adapter to see the carving, or the TV ?


Thanks, Dick

I use the eye peice adapter to see the TV it widens my view to where I see more than a small spot. I have a friend that is blind and he makes mandolins.
