mechanical stage problem
Posted: Sat Jan 25, 2020 6:44 pm
I have a mechanical stage on my student microscope similar to the photo on this page.
Worked fine yesterday. Today the Y axis knob will not move. It will not turn clockwise; and turning it counter clockwise screws the knob off. This item is less than 1 yr old. I did look at earlier posts about stages, but did not slog through all the 13+ pages I got when I searched on mechanical stage.
The ones I saw mentioned lubrication. I need advice
Thanks,
