Just a shout out to anyone looking for this.
This is a spacer for a machine tool with a 30mm spindle that goes into a 1.25 bearing.

Thanks, Mark! do they fit fairly precise? One of the guys wed do business with deals with Amana Tools. I'll see he can get me a couple of these.
I just received them in my office today. They measure precisely, but I have not been home yet to final fit. I will post a pic of the fit up later this evening.
They are precision sleeves so I am assuming they are within tens of thousands. But you know what they say about the proof of the pudding.
I'll post the fit up in a couple of hours when I get home.
Thank you, sir. Out of curiosity I just checked the Leitz barrels, and they come in at 29.99 & 30 dead on.

A perfect fit. Nearly an airtight fit actaully. I still may put a tiny spot of blue locktite on it so it does not inadvertently slip off.

I ordered these on line. I think they were 12 usd each if I remember correctly. I got them in 3 days.
That looks great, Mark. An excellent solution for the microscope eyepieces.
They sell just 1.25 chromed barrels on Ebay. Then I just silicone em on.
Well dang it Lev...why didn't you tell me this before !?
Are you holdin out on me? :-) Just kidding.
But really, do they slip over the 30mm EP nose?
I had no idea. I've been messing around trying to find this solution for a while. I guess I did not see those on ebay. Are the cheep? I did find some 23mm to 1.25 on ebay.
