I see this thread is fairly old but I really hope someone can get to my question. The pictures you posted of your customized hand lenses are absolutely gorgeous. I'm currently studying mineralogy and am in the market for a hand lens. How does one go about getting one with fancy side plates such as yours? Looking forward to your response! Cheers |

(Best to A by the way, from me and L...now 5' 9" tall!). Gold, Platinum, Ruthenium flanked versions equally welcome from the rest of you...
Here are some pictures...front and back, our US and Mexican logos...of how we tricked these out for our geologists (we WANT them to see as much as possible)...and a few VERY special friends/supporters (EJHJr.). You can see how easy it is to replace the side plates, the rest is up to your imagination...be cool to see a set with the 6 (7) crystal systems on the sides. Steve and Nancy Attaway, where are you?

I guess I should have quoted what I was talking about!
