Stock and availability depend on your run.

Use it for a Hand inspection#

  1. Use the Magnifying Glass on an inspectable item.
  2. Read its properties before selecting values in the calculator.
  3. For a customer appraisal, enter the estimate in the Inspection Tray.

If you cannot find your tool#

Check your Dossier as well as ordinary inventory: the item reference says the glass can be stored there. Dr. Jackson’s shop is another listed source when you own none; this is not a guaranteed daily delivery.

Keep unknown properties unknown#

Leave the calculator incomplete until you identify the property. An unspecified control interface is a specific observed result, not a substitute for a property you have not checked.
