Microscope project

[Tin Falcon]

I came across a neat site of how to build an inexpensive compound microscope. here is photo of the deluxe version but the frame can be built from wood. And the optics can be put together from disposable camera lenses this is listed as the proverbial dollar microscope

A little brass tube and bling and you could have a scope Louis Pasteur would be proud of.
