Thank you Luda. THIS ONE HAS BEEN SOLVED.
Me and tools, what can I say. I had to have this one just so I could figure out what it is, but I drew a blank. Sometimes it’s because I didn’t choose the right search words, not sure. But if anyone knows, I’d like to know what it is. Hmmm, can’t get a picture to post. I’ll go create a listing in my booth for now. Give me a minute to complete it.

The instructions I got to post pics won’t work here for some reason or I’ve read them wrong.

Just figured out it’s an optometrists tool of some kind. I’m getting there! I found another that states it’s an instrument for testing the focal length of your eyes. Not sure what the “focal length of your eyes” would be or mean.

I have no idea what it is, but it’s certainly interesting!

Love it and happy you have it identified. I see The Convex written on the side so I guess that gave you a good clue. I’ve never seen anything like it. What a find!

Remember these tips:
- Use links to other sources to support your opinions
- Use examples where possible
- Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?
Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
