ME 203: Design and Manufacturing
(Spring 2018)

Turning
The handle is made out of Delrin, which is a type of plastic. I started off with a solid cylinder, which I then re-shaped into a handle that holds the acrylic lens in place.
Milling
The lug is the piece that connects the handle with the ring, and I made it using a milling machine.
Welding
To connect the lug to the ring, I experimented with a brazing technique.
Polishing
All metal parts were polished using high-grade sand paper. The acrylic lens was finished using a buffing machine.
