Oak Tree Cross-Section Cutting Board, Concerned About Drying Ingredients/Bacterial Growth

I thought maybe someone with some working knowledge could give me some advise on this topic. A few days ago, I sawed up a very large red oak tree and down towards the bottom of the trunk, I was seeing beautiful patterns in the grain between sap and heartwood. So I cut off 3 'cookies' about 3 inches ...

Has anyone sent Oliver a PM?
No. I did email him though with an address I found on the website.

Shoot him a PM, it might trigger a response if something like email notification for pm's is turned on for him???

Re: Large number of spam messages

A few of us volunteered to be moderators but nothing really came through. Its probably better to just get used to the spam at this point, the topic has been discussed for years and its only gotten worse since then. I guess I'm concerned that what I am seeing here is the death throws of a forum. Rea...

Indeed. In fact the very post you've quoted is spam and contains a hidden link. Oliver is going to need to be willing to delegate or this is going to go south.
Wow. Just saw that guys history, you're spot on. ;) And the link is just a period. Geez.

IMO, almost all of this could be controlled with someone approving the first 1 or 2 posts.

Wow. That's better than I thought it might be. Hopefully Amscope customer service will put it's best foot forward and not in their mouth. Let us know ;)

Hi, Jomosoft. Welcome to the forum.

You can try the Amscope UK website linked below. It looks like some of the driver packages may be universal???

Re: Large number of spam messages

As a brand new member, I think what you folks have discussed here (2nd post on down) is a very realistic way to manage spamming, and still keep the ability to bring in new members.

Fluke (But What Type?)

Hey folks!, First time poster here that has slowly been getting use to his microscope. I picked up an Amscope T490B a couple of months ago, and have recently had more time to sit down and enjoy it. It seems to be a sweet little scope, that is easily upgradable. Kinda like a polytasker. Getting the t...
