A while ago I posted a question about turning brass. This is the project it was for.
A friend at work was using a magnifying glass he put together to read drawings. I was marveling at the craftsmanship and how scratched up the glass had become and I told him I wished he had asked me as I think I could have done a slightly better job. So, he whips around in his chair, opens a drawer and pulls out another lens and says, " I was hoping you would say something". I walked right into that one. Trust me when I say 'his' looks MUCH better in the pic than in person.
BTW, what I ended up using for the brass ring above the handle is the outer portion of a brass quick disconnect for an air hose !
The magnifier is Cherry, box is Oak.
