Nice, finally got the video recording option working so now I can also try my hand at microvideography.

What good is a microscope in the hands of an amateur?

Well, it makes a drop of dirty water infinitely more interesting than it would be otherwise.

Now I've just gotta learn to identify what these things are.

Microscope is looking more microscopey by the day.

Electronics done, I just need to get some illumination and some optics and I'm ready to look at tiny things.

I forgot to order some pieces, and I'm still waiting on my optics from China, so this is as far as I can go until they get here.

This is an awesome design, amazing work. I'm enjoying the build so much I'm already planning to make another :blobcatlaugh:

So, 24 hours later I have the first part of my OpenFlexure microscope.

Some pictures showing the #3dprinting / building process of the #openflexure microscope:

("The bottom line is that the basic OpenFlexure Microscope, using the lens from v2 of the Raspberry Pi camera, has a resolution roughly equivalent to a lab microscope with a decent 20x objective lens, but the magnification is closer to that of a 50x objective." source: https://openflexure.gitlab.io/microscope-handbook/build-a-microscope/magnification-resolution-and-field-of-view.html )

Next to come: Lallemand Verdant or Nottingham or Windsor - whatever I want to brew #openflexure #homebrewing #bierbrauen #hobbybrauer

v7 of the microscope is now in Beta.
