Brian, just wondering, do you wear a "Head Magnifyer" while doing this work?

Pic's of the lenses, that I use on the bench and the lathe.
And lots of light. Brian.

Ya, lots of light! I know I now need that, even for bigger things.

The first trial of a pair of gears in the plates.
It starts to look like a clock ?? Brian.

Looking good Brian. How many hours do you think this represents so far?

More time has been spent on recording the work and doing the drawings, (and learning CAD at the same time).  I just hope it will help a few people to get started on a worthwhile project, at little cost,instead of wishing for the next costly tool that someone says you "Must have" Brian.

I don't track the hours on my projects either. If I knew how much time I spent on them, then it's possible that my wife could find out.

Tom - the secret is to log the hours under the heading "time I spent thinking about my wife today/this week/this month" (adjust based on hours).
