Crumby's Good Day
Today is Crumby's birthday. He is 66 and eligible for full Social Security. Ha!
Not only that, Crumby may have made his free Wenger sac better. Recall that the vendor of Crumby's free sac gave it to Crumby after Crumby discovered it was defective. Like the scissors and the magnifier were both broke.
Loctite seems to have fixed the scissors. But the magnifier has proved a nasty poser. Like Crumby even e-mailed wengerna asking for help with his free, yet broke, Champ. At first Crumby was hopeful, because the lady at wengerna requested Crumby send along a picture of his Champ. Crumby obliged. But then Crumby has never heard from that lady, that day to this; over a week. Mercy!
Crumby also contacted smartknives. Smartknives is who told Crumby to contact wengerna. Mercy!
So today Crumby decided to take apart an old pair of Pentax bins. You may know. A pair of those midget, no account porro prisms that never stay aligned for more than a week. Turns out, the right eye piece contained three positive meniscus lenses about 13.5 mm dia. and less than 2.0 mm wide at the center. All Crumby had to do was ground the edge of the lens down to 12 mm. This he accomplished by rubbing the lens edgewise on a conundrum stone. Well actually, not a conundrum stone, but a sharpening stone that Crumby can't remember how to spell that's similar to conundrum.
But as usual Crumby used excessive manpower, taking too much off the edge so that instead of snugging into the frame, the lens was too loose and had to be glued. Not good. However, since Crumby had previously employed Loctite on this very same sac, he decided to stick with Loctite. But he made a terrible mess and got glue all over the lens and the magnifier holder as well. Mercy!
Happily, Loctite is soluble in Purple Primer. Yes. The same Purple Primer many may use on PVC pipes. The same Purple Primer that Crumby always has handy. Here is a picture featuring the Wenger magnifier with new lens. Note. The Roswell flying saucer is upside down because the lens is beyond its very short FL.
Course, Crumby had to apply manly amounts of the Purple Primer to get all the glue off the lens. Then lots of the Purple Primer may have migrated down into the glue holding the lens in place. The fact is, that glue is now the Color Purple. Dang! Hopefully, the lens won't fall out thanks to the Purple Primer.
Also, thanks to plenty of Lotrimin AF ointment, Crumby is about shut of his Tinea cruris.
