Revolving Base for tiny tasks

Inspired by watchmaking I created this rotating base.
The base can rotate freely on a skateboard ball bearing and can be locked by a pin with indents every 6 Degrees. The base plate is is tetachable from the rotating wheel so that averyone can design its own base (for exammple integrating fractal vices, watchmaking vices, silicon paddings…); that's the reason why I created just a simple one.

In addition to the revolving base I wanted to have a way of seeing better tiny objects when working. Always inspired by watchmaking i decided to use a cheap set of magnifying glasses (usually those are actually used as glasses) and mounting them to an articulated arm for better positioning and ergonomics.

As Woodworkersnever have enough clamps, so makers never have enough hands. Two ball jointed articulating arms help when another set of hands is necessary.

The design is open source, feel free to remix it and upload your custom round plate attachments. (But of course give credit please ;))

Assembly:

The assembly is quite easy and straightforward. Just follow the attached assembly drawings and the build video below and you should have this rotating base ready in around 10 minutes.
