Hi Rod, I'd be interested in the 10x phase lens, assuming you still have it. PayPal or ?? for payment of the $25 plus $7 shipping?? Just now getting into phase microscopy for a local kids' science group.

Can you PM me with details?

Hi,

I should like to buy the microtome if you are prepared to post to the UK and just so long as the postage is not too high.
Would you be kind enough to PM me with details of all in price and your preferred payment method.

Kind regards,
David

Hi Rod, Thanks for the PM. Apparently as a new member, I'm not yet allowed to reply privately until posting a bit more. To answer your question -- I do have an AO Infinity scope with a phase condenser that should work with the 10x lens. We're also looking for a 20x American Optical or the equivalent Reichert phase annulus -- have the lens but an empty spot in the Zernicke condenser -- and that's a pretty good magnification for the kids to look at pond water.

Can you let me know an email to reach you -- and then I can send my contact info. Best regards, Pete

20x phase is definitely something you want for pond water, or at least, it's what I use most often for protists by far. I recommend making a bunch of noise about it in the form of Want To Buy notices, or just plain posting to the general forum saying you're looking for one. Somebody around here is likely to have an extra. Good luck!

Hi Rod,

I received your email asking me for my address and answered it right away. However, I can find no trace of either email and fear that they may have disappeared into the ether.
I am still interested in the microtome and, if you have the patience, might I ask that we start again. For the purposes of pricing my UK postcode is PO412 0UJ.
I'll wait (hopefully) to hear from you.

Kind regards,
David
