    Okay, so I'm new to Pinball and machine ownership so I get pretty excited on just about anything Pinball related at this point. I'm not sure if this is old news to most of you folks, but I thought I would share. My wife is an esthetician by trade so she does a lot of facials. The light she uses is almost purpose built for pinball machines. I really found that the magnifier came in handy when cleaning/checking Pinballs or the play field for damage. Interesting what you'll see after putting the lighted magnifying glass on the play field. I took some pictures for example even though I probably should have taken the glass of so you could see the playfield magnified vs naked eye. What is everyone else using for lighting?

    Quoted from dothedoo:

    I have a lamp like that and have used it quite a bit, but it doesn't have a stand. Did that come with it or is it a separate item I could buy?

    This one came with the stand or in the this case it came from my wifes facial room..Shhh don't tell her that I'm using it on a Pinball... I just let her know a couple weeks ago that there might be another one on the way and this could put her over the edge.

    Ps. Hope you're wearing a glove

    That made me laugh out loud

    Yes, I always wear protection with playing with my pinballs

    Looks like I found the right light, and yes the wheels/stand made a big difference when cleaning the play field. Although the light could be left in the same spot for the majority of the cleaning. Thanks for all the replies!!
