Cut, Solder, Polish.

I have been working on several pieces at once lately and devised a system of doing work in stages to be a little more time effective. So earlier in the week I was cutting things out and filing them, then I spent another day soldering, and another doing finishing work and photographing. I have been working on bezels, rings, and earrings as you can see in the pictures..
I also started working on cutting out the pieces for a trial of magnifying lenses, but I am struggling to find a key component.. the magnifying lens – yeah kind of important. I can only find them in bulk of hundreds or made in acrylic. So the search continues and if anyone has an idea where to find about ten 1 1/2 inch diameter GLASS magnifying lenses, I would love to know.
