New to this board and I have a question. Is there much need for "minor" paperweight repairs? Reason I'm asking is I have a machine designed for prototyping telescope lenses, and I have repaired 4 paperweights on it. I am currently finishing up the 4Th one. I'm really only interested in taking out small chips and scratches to the top dome or bottom base. I have the tooling to do more extensive repairs but do not want that type of work. (my hands will not allow me to do so as they start cramping) A month ago I met a man and told him I may sell him my machine when I was finished with it as I had a weight and a marble (to be made into a weight) to finish. Now that I'm back to using the machine I am wondering if I am doing the right thing by selling it. It's not that I need the money, I'm just trying to stay busy, especially in the wintertime, and working on the weights is a lot of fun as well as rewarding. Any advice would be appreciated. Ronnie
