Re: mini barlow
.... and without CAD, CNC, or lasers.
did make a mini jewelers saw that i could use under a microscope with a 8/0 blade.
there were some brain picking phone calls to MUCH more experianced craftsmen both before and durring this project.
ive been plotting a few others IF i ever get the time again.
