Day 2
Thanks for all the kind words about the custom I shared yesterday.
I really enjoyed seeing all the cool stuff everyone else has posted too.

Working out in the shop today with some help from the Scientist. Both true originals.

Day 2

Made my breakfast with a freshly cleaned Explorer blade.

Then used the Phillips to tighten the kiddos toy ukulele tuner.

Closeups with the mag lens.

Im going to count the number of times I use the mag lens for actual inspection or reading.  The tuner counts as I was trying to better see if it might strip with too much torque.  Better than I expected.

Mag lens use x1

Thanks. They’re a matched pair of vintage marine spark arrestors from the early 50s. Not very easy to find but they do make a reproduction that has a filter on it instead of the screens. Probably more than you needed to know…. 🤪
