Subject; microscope tool


Hello All,
I am new to posting on this list, but ran across something that
would be of interest to any one using a microscope. It is my
understanding that is was developed as a demonstration or teaching
aid, to visually show the light path and shape coming out of the sub
stage condenser. It does this admirably, but it also is a great tool
to assist in the set up and use of the microscope. I work with
several different lighting modes, cardioid darkfield, bright field,
oblique and phase. For the cost involved, which is almost nothing
with respect to microscope accessories, it is truly a wonderful tool.
It shortens my setup time when changing condensers, because I can
immediately see what and where the light beam is going. The beam of
light going through the material is bright enough that it even works
well in normal room lighting.
There are some of them listed on ebay, item number 7548623610. I
have no financial interest in these, but am only interested in
spreading the word about what I think is a fantastic tool for
microscopy. Do yourself a favor and check these out.
PS; It does work as a teaching aid, in a matter of minutes, I was
able to show my grand daughter what I had been trying to explain on
paper, unsuccessfully for over a month.
FWIW, Stan
