There should be a thread on hand signals that pt's give when they are talking about progressives, Transitions, polarized. It's actually quite funny that the hand motions for both progressives and transitions are the same, but when used within a certain context mean totally different things lol.

Me too, also a lens cutter and a Grollman. I recently gave an AO TriMatic edger to a friend who is using it in an unoptical manufacturing shop.
Who in here has used a fineing pan" or polishing pan or cut their own laps made of metal. used a generator cooled with light weight oil and cut the glass lens fast enough the oil ignites.
Done all of that CCGREEN. Rocked in cylinders too, especially back in the day when many were put on the convex side.
Other terms: Elliptical Error, Cross Cylinders, Over-Refraction... could go on forever
