Thank you for the reply.

I have one here but it is far too long to use it on my cnc router!

At the beginning I had quite a time to focus as the enlargement is quite 
big. I had the idea to measure a 3M sponge with pad and it is exactly 
the height very close to the focus, so I have no problem to focus 
quickly and this without the danger of hurting the front lense.
