Magnifying Glass

thingiverse

This is a clear magnifying glass created with 3D printing technology, utilizing a precise SLA printer and transparent resin from Formlabs' Form1+ model. After removing support structures and cleaning, apply five thin coats of crystal-clear enamel spray to significantly reduce layer visibility and boost lens clarity. Handle this object carefully, as direct sunlight can concentrate solar energy, potentially igniting a fire. Note that no sanding or polishing was required on the print; instead, let the clear enamel work its magic. Allow the lens to air-dry for approximately a day or so, ensuring not to rest it until the enamel has fully cured to prevent any markings. Due to limited technical knowledge, optical measurements are speculative at best, and I present this proof of concept in good faith.
