Welcome to forum!

Have you ever repaired a Nikon model G's condenser mount? Once its threads are slightly damaged, it is a pain to repair.

Also Nikon model S' mechanical stage, with those two ball bearings, is a pain too.

I repaired both myself, but my repair only barely works.

Welcome aboard! A microscope repair person should prove a valuable addition to this forum. (As in, "oh yes, your brain is gonna get picked.") :D

Hello and welcome.

And I agree with everyones sentiments...I can already think of some repair questions...but I'll hold off ;)

Any chance of a pic of your (?favourite, as in I'm guessing you have more than one) microscope(s)?
Or perhaps just some details about your scope?
