Mine is still in transit and I only bought one (somewhat rash since the postage is twice the cost of the item). I see they have updated their listing to indicate that they will ship up to six for the same cost.

I also tried to buy one of those JML lenses, alas ... too late, so I bought a similar one from Surplus Shed - http://www.surplusshed.com/pages/item/l10075.html.

Also got 2 others (WOLLENSAK 24mm f3.5 MICRO "PROJECTION" LENS, WOLLENSAK 12.2MM F/2.0, 31.50X MICRO IMAGE LENS), 4 fire blocks (2-5/8" SQUARE CERAMIC TILE WITH TINY HOLES) and a PRECISION 100MM DIA, 6MM THICK 1 ARC MIN WINDOW (for old Swift Cycloptic Stereoscope) for $41.50 US. Shipping is $8.98 via USPS airmail. Altronics wants $26.16 US for USPS for 1 or 6 pcs. Even considering the difference in distance this is inflated.

I have two Compugraphics type setting machine Lens Gatling Guns.

They have a turret of lenses similar to the one in the Surplus Shed advert.
I think that mounting flange is the same and some of the lenses say Ednalite which used to be an optical company in New York state.

I am sure they were the mag changer portion and the steps are small.
I have $50 each in them if any body wants them. I will shoot some pix if anyone is interested.

Correction. I followed ChristLilley's link to Alltronics and found they're charging $16.45 for USPS shipping so I bought two.

g4lab, what on earth is a "setting machine Lens Gatling Guns"?
Not surprised about Ednalite, so many optical firms were centered about Rochester. i.e. B&L, A.O., Polaroid, Kodak, Woolensak, JML, and many more.

btw... that SS lens seems to have the same square form thread as on a 4 piece set of "United Binocular" Japanese made lenses I can find no info on.

Just like me, I bought those lenses and a seaco/dynamic optics assembly 19.3mm 2.8 ref. L3213 @ 6.50$

Thanks all for your replies

Just a quick FYI... Alltronics has already shipped the JML lenses with tracking and PayPal has credited my card $5.95, bringing the shipping total to: $10.50 USD. :D
