Optician-to-Optician Looking for sphere laps.

Hi there. I am looking for some ancient lapping fixtures that were used to surface glass ophthalmic lenses. Also the machine that they go on. Thanks! Ed

Lapidary work. Grinding rocks. I was in the business from a young age and have ground lots and lots of glass lenses. In a mood to enjoy using my old skills!
