Completed Lens Cell
I'll be the first to admit this isn't the most ideal way to design a lens cell. Mine is basically a pressure fitting held together by three 4-40 machine screws. The depth of the lens well in the left-hand piece is slightly less than the thickness of the objective. This design was actually a last-minute improvisation after I realized my lathe wasn't cutting threads properly. I hope to replace this cell with a more traditional screw-down style where the interior of the lens well is partially threaded.

The finished pieces will be anodized black.
