Nice plus a wonderful atmosphere.

Maybe a 16 bit install of Win10 will work? Worth trying.

Hi, Bombust. I was lucky and bumped into one in my regular micro group. Have been looking around for awhile though :cry: According to some the move from critical illumination on a standard CH2 configuration to a Kohler based setup does not bring you much, not even contrast improvement when taking pi...

Look at this on eBay
Olympus OM Lens to Nikon Camera F mount adapter D7200 D810a D5500 D4 D750 D3300

It replaces the Olympus mount on the L adapter.
Note: the bolts do not fit perfectly and require some work (they stick out 0.3 mm and scratch the nikon mount).

Hello,


Looking for an Olympus CH2-FS: this will implement Kohler for the CH2 microscope.

The CH2-FS set contains :
- a diaphragm frame (field iris) to be placed on the light exit
- an additional collector lens to be placed in the existing CH2 condenser

Thank You,

Bob,

Sorry, do not know what paraffin make they were referring to, no practice myself yet.

Still exploring hand cuts using a simple table microtome here.

Ha Bob,

I went to a slide making training session last month, no practice in the wax-cutting area myself: they recommended adding 5% bee-wax to the mix to improve the cutting capability. An option when re-embedding?

Filter goes ON the lamp exit point.

To my knowledge The CH20 series uses a 6 V 20 W – Philips 7388.

As per my provided TDKK link: they supply a LED module that simply replaces the 7388 : 1 minute exchange and done.

Bob,

You might try re-heating the block to say 45 (and 50 etc) Centigrade and see whether the wax resets to a more easy state to process.

Suggest to inquired at https://www.tdkk.nl/. They specialise in LED lights for microscopes.

Their website is in Dutch and (partially) in English.

No connection just a satisfied customer.

Hallo Jan, An idea maybe: a Dutch company Triple M Audio In Rhenen specialises in audio repair including tube audio. They do rebuild (audio) trafo’s and usually like a challenge. You could give them a call an see whether they can be of any help. Alternative is Joop Microscoop in Koekange info@tdkk.n...
