So I came across this thread the other day, which shows a method to evaluate the extent of wear on a stylus.

Seemed simple enough, so I set up my cheap little LCD scope and thought I'd check my cartridges, starting with the 310MC out of the SL-10.
Sure enough, there were two little eyes looking back at me. Looks like it might be a pretty good way to track wear... I'll have to do this every 50 hours or so and see if I can track a difference. Might be interesting also to record some sweeps and compare them over time.
Has anyone else used this method? Gotta figure out how big those eyes can get before it's a problem...
