Just in case you need a cheap boroscope, Think I paid $85 or so for mine, not recommending this site, just showing one option for what is out there. $15.90 > **[Waterproof HD 2M/7mm Endoscope Lens Mini USB Inspection Camera with 6 LED...](https://www.walmart.com/ip/Waterproof-HD-2M-7mm-Endoscope-Lens-Mini-USB-Inspection-Camera-with-6-LED-Lights-Borescope-for-Android-Smartphone-PC-Lapt-op/924102324?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=9869&adid=22222222227000000000&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=42423897272&wl4=aud-834279576126:pla-51320962143&wl5=9018795&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=115780161&wl11=online&wl12=924102324&veh=sem&gclid=CjwKCAjwiMj2BRBFEiwAYfTbCmUYKSE2jnJOhtmwknl9GRTHtpWznF9kvIwU7En_1CI8nuGMxl9hVhoC-YoQAvD_BwE)** > > Free 2-day shipping.

I bought mine separate in the case from Rockler on sale for about $100. Like I said though I really have not found much use for it. The few times I’ve wanted to look at something just couldn’t get the wand where I wanted and didn’t really help. Looking through spark plug holes maybe but ductwork not so much. ---

I paid $70 for one back in 2012. The stem is thicker and much stiffer than the one you show appears to be. Plus, it won’t work on Windows 10. I haven’t had need for one lately, so I figure the longer I wait the better a deal I’ll get. ---

Heck, you could probably use that for a DIY colonoscopy. 😀 ---

Sorry for not being clear. The one I bought in 2012 is not the unit Barky posted. > [@Barkydog](#): > > Android/Win 2000/XP/Vista/7/8/10 is in the description. ---

Yeah if I knew what to look for, no attachment for cutting off polyps as far as I have seen 😉 ---

Are you hijacking this thread? Yes I need to clip my toe nails, but borrowing your clippers is not in my top 100 list! Must be the weekend again 😉 ---

Barky- all I know is that endoscope looks like it would torture me a lot less than the one my urologist uses!.
