I tried follow the directions, but I seem to be mechanically and artistically incompetent. Fortunately I found a kit for sale on eBay for $50 which I have been pretty happy with. The seller makes the set for a variety of microscopes. This isn't an ad- I don't know the seller. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Nikon-microsco ... Sw8NlcfGED
