That is the tool I use. Infact I have three of them, one at my sewing machine, one at my lounger and on in my sewing kilt I keep in my Vanagon.
Still it is tedious work for my old eyes. But it is something to do other than browing the net which is hard on the eyes also.
I think I will use the material for a kilt for my #2 son, David.
