Microscope adapter
Hi
I purchased a Bausch & Lomb Stereo Zoom 4 microscope from ebay USA. This is for electronics, which use parts small enough to require a microscope to work with.

To reduce shipping cost, I found a microscope with a mount but no stand. The plan was to buy a computer monitor stand and make an adapter.

Although some surfaces were machined on a mill, most operations were completed on the lathe.

Hi
A CAD view of the adapter.

I also made a ring light 3D printed. Not done on a lathe but I thought would be of interest.
