I think that I have to play with this set-up, But I have the right Idea.
I am still having a very hard time with Pennies.. Just cant get close enough to show errors, and Proofs are making me nuts, all I get is the reflection of the lens.

Let me know what you all think and what I could do to improve.
Thanks,
Bill

Try changing your background. For light specimens use a dark background and for dark specimens use a light background. Contrast is a 'good thing'
