Add Convenient Tool Storage to Your Microscope Workstation Keep your most-used tools, gravers, tweezers, burs, gauges, and supplies within easy reach with the GRS Post Mount Utility Shelf. Designed to mount directly to a GRS microscope stand or virtually any 1.125" (28.5 mm) diameter post, this durable aluminum shelf helps organize your workspace while maximizing efficiency during jewelry engraving, stone setting, watchmaking, and other precision bench work. Constructed from solid 1/4" (6.35 mm) aluminum with a rugged textured powder-coated finish, the shelf provides a stable platform for frequently used tools and accessories. Its pivoting design allows the shelf to lock securely in any position or rotate freely, giving you quick access when needed while easily swinging out of the way to keep your workspace clear. The shelf can be mounted above or below the Acrobat® arm, allowing you to customize your workstation based on your microscope setup and available bench space. For heavier items such as monitors or cameras, GRS recommends positioning the shelf directly over the support post for maximum stability.
