I need the screw that holds the fine focus lever in place, it is
sheared off. If anyone knows a source for these kinds pf parts, do let
me know. My guess is I'll become friends with a machinist.

I can help you identify a standard mechanical part, or custom duplicate a
non-standard one.

I'll be pulling this microscope apart tomorrow afternoon. I hope to go
through all the optics and all mechancial moving parts and put it back
together. I will see about getting out the part of the screw out of
the microscope body that sheared and will take measurements so that it
is defined.

I'm running out now to pick up proper cleaning materials and solvents.
I'll post back to you the dimensions of the sheared screw.

Thank you to everyone that has shared their knowledge and advice. I'll
be back tomorrow with an update....
