Hi Radazz,
nice crytals you show us with you vintage microscope!
This is a really nice setup, not old enough to be too fragile and cumbersome, but old enough to come from a time when things were made for ever.

It is no wonder that Carl Zeiss was a well trained mechanic when he founded his microscope business.
