My bricos: XYZ stage
Another easy and cheap brico. A condenser support from an old microscope, tourned 180º, fixed in a heavy block of marble, and a simple mecanized disk. Is a obvious Z stage, but the two screws for centering the condenser is now a XY movement. OK, only a few milimeters, but very useful when I work with 20x. The aluminium disk allow rotate the sample 360º.
