Davegee sent me these in with the last batch of kits for our veterans so I took the opportunity to learn just what it like to turn with impaired vision also to help me to understand what it is like for them so I sanded the lense on a Pr of goggles before turning the seam rippers what an experience and a good learning curve for me

But you must have been wearing the goggles when you were assembling them. There's a gap between the blank and the ripper end on the brown one :whistling:
