Currently there are 3 Olympus scopes on ebay for $71.00. (Closes 27 Sept)
They all have co-axial coarse/fine adjustments and xyz stages
With a little bit of hacksaw modification they may be useful as subject-movers for our line of interest.
I have no idea about the quality of the fine adjustment controls; they are different from the one I have on my Olympus BH stand
HERE
EDIT: Sold for US$72.00; got to have been a real bargain; wish I had put in a bid.

Quote – Holmes on ‘Entomology’
” I suppose you are an entomologist ? “
” Not quite so ambitious as that, sir. I should like to put my eyes on the individual entitled to that name.
No man can be truly called an entomologist,
sir; the subject is too vast for any single human intelligence to grasp.”
