    Yes, I work with electron microscopes (TEM and SEM) looking at biological and material samples.

    I started my collection with an old gradeschool microscope from the 50's. I've since added a factory model used in a Zeiss plant, some Japanese field microscope, and a nice Bauch and Lomb from the 30's (that's the big one). I love to find them all dusty and dirty, then take 'em apart and polish every piece before putting it back together. When I'm done, they look brand new again.

    Thanks Beetle60!

    This is from August. So, the tank has developed considerably since then. Check out my Tank thread.
