Hi Yves

I have been following Simon's IE Light since the start and a beautiful job he has made of it, I have had no input into it at all, and I have seen Simon use his Lathe he has only had it for a very short time, it is a bit scary watching him use it he only uses the parting off tool apart from the lathe dancing around as he hasn't bolted down yet But what he turns out on it is amazing

all my own work as they say, my ability on the lathe is not from the text book, its guesswork anyone watching would be amused , not for the trained engineer to measure or look to close ,its the overall finish i'm after, credit does go to steve he has shown me some good tips on metal work over the years of knowing him, once again thanks for all the good feedback, at least it generates some interest and another topic to view, now over to the jadgpanther channel where i will be from now on, many thanks simon.

Simon,
Your IR scope is magnificent. You did a fantastic job making the parts and then made it really outstanding with the excellent painting. It looks like a real scope! The weathering and paint chipping is amazing. My hat is off to you on a job well done. I look forward to following your JP build!
