PSPVinyls Valued Member United States 150 Posts	Posted 01/14/2017 1:44 pm Introducing Scott's Lego microscope Version 2. The phone fits nice and snug so I don't have to worry about it slipping out. Adjusting the focus, zoom, color, and contrast is easily done using the phone's camera. The "tray/slide" can now be rotated 360 degrees. Perfect for taking multiple shots. Attached are photos of the microscope and the coin I used. And anyone wondering what that machine in the background is, it's a vinyl cutter used for decals. Report this Post to the Staff

PSPVinyls Valued Member United States 150 Posts	Posted 01/15/2017 7:05 pm Quote: Very clever idea. Thanks, I've been using Lego's for a number of things lately. One is an exhaust fan for my laser engraver. The fan is from a gutted computer. Another Lego thing is a positive/negative tester when I work with electronics. Another one is just a simple USB on/off box. Lego's are a good stress relief. Report this Post to the Staff

jbuck Moderator United States 189767 Posts	Posted 01/16/2017 2:43 pm I built my son a T-Rex last night (we got it from the Lego store in Disney Springs). I hope that means he will let me scavenge some parts.
