I just stumbled upon something that some of you may be ignoring from rear projection TVs. As you may or may not know these things have a wide range of interesting lenses in them depending upon how far you want to tear them down. I sit around at night watching TV an scrapping so I tend to tear things down pretty far. After doing dozen or so big screens over the months I built up a big box of these various lenses. Over the course of a couple of flea markets and garage sales I bet I've made about 25 bucks off them. Not a lot but its not bad for some glass that you may overlook. I put them out for $1.00 each and let people pick through them. I haven't checked Ebay to see if there might be a better market for them there but my way involves almost no work at all so its all bonus as far as I am concerned.
