turret dust caps
turret dust caps
I've searched many websites that sell microscopes and accessories and have yet to find one that sells RMS threaded turret dust caps. I have seen the aluminum ones on ebay, all sold by someone in spain, but thought that there must be a place to buy inexpensive plastic ones in the US. Does anyone know where they may be available?
Thanks,

Better yet buy an objective to fill the hole from Lorez........

Ok, I'll trade you a pair of 20mm that sure don't fit an E600, even tho they are engraved NIKON, forlorez wrote:PM me with an offer I cannot refuse and I'll send you some.

a pair of 25mm's. If you think not I will pay whatever you want, surely less than the $9 I paid for these.
I was really frantic today. Sat down to assemble the stage and the set screw was gone. Yesterday I tossed
a whole big box of cardboard and plastic, and I was sure the part must be gone. But today I found it in an anti-static
bag in the regular trash can.

Re: turret dust caps
I'm sorry I don't have any caps for the E600. Maybe I can find some at a reasonable $$. I have boxes of the RMS size as well as the objective canisters. I keep all my Nikon spaces filled with objectives.
Re: turret dust caps
Since I balk at using oil, there should not be any more obj's I could use to
fill those holes. Maybe a pair of junkers, but they would just be confusing.

There is always duct tape...
Re: turret dust caps
Duck tape on a Nikon, perish the thought! The Ebay guy that sold me the
wrong size is looking to see if he has any, but his time is limited as he is babysitting
a grandchild.

Re: turret dust caps
They are available on eBay, new from China. $1.29 each. First one shipped is $2.99, and each additional ships for $.50.

Re: turret dust caps
Thank you Carl, I'll check it out. May only need one as I'm contemplating a 4X objective, maybe
my supplier will also have a 2X. Sure an expensive way to keep dust out!
