    Blue Jumper Vice grips............................

    How come that old timers learned and are able to mount rimless drill frames even with thick or thin glass ...............never mind mentioning lens materilas you consider as safe for drilling.

    Would you purchase a new gold ring with gauges on it ?????????????
