You can buy a camera specifically for use in one of these microscopes, I am trying to get my boss to order one for me. There is a bit of lag so its not ideal for viewing intricate work but for just capturing images its great. you can get them for under $100 easy on amazon.

@7:00 A bit of a tip - when you have a lot of screws of different length that you really don't want to loose, you can punch them through cardboard, or even better - *draw a shape of the object and punch the screws through cardboard in their corresponding place.* This way not only you'd know where each screw/bolt goes, but they're also reasonably well secured, and won't roll around.

"When I zoom in it changes the focus." Always zoom in to focus. Then zoom out. When zoomed in, there is a smaller depth of focus, so it's more picky when zoomed in. If the scope doesn't stay in focus when you zoom out, you should be able to adjust this with the eye pieces. Using one eye, adjust the eyepiece a bit, say a half a turn. Then re-focus. Then zoom out. If the focus is even worse when you zoom out, then turn the eyepiece in the other direction. After you get it "parfocal" then adjust the other eyepiece to match. I'm pretty sure Adam doesn't read instructions. But maybe this will help someone else.

One of the eyetubes is adjustable, the other needs to have a setscrew loosened to adjust it for parfocal. The B&L StereoZoom 4 is the gold standard of stereo microscopes even after 50+ years. Leica bought them out and continued to use the same form factor for years. Note to Adam: Do not attempt to disassemble it farther than you did in the video, you'll knock it out of alignment. If you need to clean the internal lenses, either send it to a qualified repairman, or ask for proper instructions so you don't brick it. Oh, and put that damn gasket back in! Edit: Also if you decide to lube it make sure to use nonvolatile grease, fumes from the grease drying out will fog the lenses over time. The eyepieces you have with it are susceptible to having the doublet lens glue separate. They can be repaired but it's tricky getting it right without introducing contaminates that will be visible.

Mapping the screws out in the position they where in is a great practice. Particularly in the mobile phone repair industry. The iPhone has 10s of acres that are all different. Some don't look different. But if installed incorrectly can damage the device. This also works well for washers bolts and other things that you disassemble. Placing stuff in the order you removed them can save you hours trying to figure out how something is put back together.

This round material became one of my favourites. As I watched you cutting it I remembered my own experiences. I came across a company in London on a trading estate that had gone out of business and was dumping a lot of material in a skip. It was in massive lengths and to big to get in a car so I ended up using the college minibus to transport it. The stuff weighs a ton in 12 ft lengths and The bus ended up full. They duped a whole range of materials and in lots of different colours. I grabbed a lot of the larger diameters for my own workshop and still have a lot of it left. Great for adapters and large washers and bushings.

The fiber optic lighting setup existed because at the time the microscope was manufactured, LED lights had not been invented yet, and there was no room above the inspection area for a bulky, hot, incandescent light. Nowadays the fiber optic system is an archaic curiosity.

Looking for a lathe and a milling machine on ebay, they're a couple thousand dollars each (say $3000 each), coming to $6000. Band saw and table saw at $1500 each push that to $9000. Then there's a lot of other tools and tooling for the big tools, so I'm guessing that tools combined worth (or replacement value) would be between $15000 and $20000, so total equipment might very well be over $20,000 worth to replace. Since I'm just guessing, this might be off by a factor two. And that's ignoring all the furniture, costumes, props, collectibles, doodads and thingamajigs, and a lot of things that we've never even seen. Also: don't get any ideas breaking in and stealing his stuff. Most of these things are very hard to move (you don't exactly put a milling machine in your back pocket), hard to sell (who'd want to buy a space suit that doesn't know/care that it was stolen from Adam?) or both.

When you pulled out the equipment it reminded me of the days when I used to count the air voids in hardened concrete.

It’s a stereomicroscope, what you see is actually in 3D. There are many brands you can buy for a few hundred dollars on eBay. Leica is a great one...you can also get attachments to hook up a video camera, as well as increase magnification.

Working in a computer shop for years and dealing with many screws we would use Ice Cube trays to sort the screws as we disassembled equipment. Similar to how you lay out the screws in order. This way you avoid lightly brushing the screw with something and messing up the order.

5:55 You can screw a Barlow lens into that port to tune the focal length. Then the clamping screws of the cold light source fasten to the Barlow lens

these on the phone on your own videos have been my favorite more human and feels more personal keep up the great work!!

My jealousy over your awesome microscope is palpable, I would love to have one of these for doing my electronics repairs!

Hello Adam. Now that you've got some magnification you should try hunting for Tardigrades and other critters; just look for standing pond water. There's a lot of fun stuff to see even at 50x.

What became of Testeds "Off World" sub-series???

I know it wasn't an important build where the threads were critical, but if there's one thing i've learnt about ... learning, is that whenever presented with the opportunity to learn/better ourselves, we should seize it. Be it cutting threads even if we don't need them or printing a component, but adding a twist in the print, to represent the part needed, but also a new procedure we might want to learn or cutting lumber in different methods until we find the best for us, so on.

Dude! You forgot to show us the tiny screws and instead you showed us your messed up finger! Classic Adam!

I'm spending the quarantine dismantling and rebuilding a bunch of old mechanical watches (complete with their many tiny screws!). I just bought an excellent LED light-ring for my inspection microscope for $20, that is a quarter the size of that fiber-optic unit, not even including the light source box or its huge cable. Fiber optics were great in the pre-LED days when the only other options were incandescent bulbs, or bulky fluorescent rings. Nowdays, much cheaper/better/easier options exist... On the other hand, I'd love to have an excuse to buy a lathe and a big old delrin billet :)

If only we all had a national T.V. Show to find all our really cool toys with!!!!!

We have older B&L microscopes at work, but a similar/same housing on bottom.. the part you made is a lens adding further magnification that you can of course also attach a light ring to.

You should definitely make some sort of mirror based reflective add on so that the camera can more easily be mounted to the scope!
