544 forum posts 17 photos	May I present my latest "project",nothing more than a lash up to hold my magnifying glass while I try to hold a job and read my mic at the same time. Anyone else been there? This has to be the cheapy to end all cheapys,being nothing more than an offcut of 2" round+ a piece of 8mm rod+ a piece of 20mm sq and two wingnuts and the star of the show-----a cheap mag glass from the pound shop ! Is it pritty? NO Is it expensive? NO Does it work ? YES sure does ! No drawings are available ,but there is a picture of it in my album Feel free to copy !!
