I keep a bright red permanent pen with my files. Mark the link where I start...

Started off with black pen but found red shows up better. I mark two cutters, one on left and one one right. If it's just a quick touch-up, the two marked cutter will be next to each other. And in this case after the cutters have been sharpened, I'll check the depth gauges, starting at the rear most marked cutter and finishing at the forward most marked cutter. Bit long winded to describe but easier in practice.

 

If you're having problems with low light levels in the workshop. I suggest you get a small LED reading lamp on a bendy stem. Some like this: [ame]http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mighty-Bright-Xtraflex-Craft-Silver/dp/B0024HJGA2/ref=pd_sim_light_6?ie=UTF8&refRID=1V8J59FPYA4YJMVAKW1H[/ame]

I'm up to 2.5 re glasses and for a splinter I often have two pairs on. At this time of year three pairs may be used on the odd occasion if the splinter is small and fiddly!

2.5 for me as well. Especially when sharpening. It happened so quickly after 43.
