Stage Designs and Kits for WebCam Microscopes

In the course of the may workshops on webcam microscopes dozens of genius designs were born. Each setup is unique and the result of an intensive construction and learning process. To integrate some of the experiences and speed up the process of construction you find some stage designs on this page. These designs use acrylic glass and are easy to reproduce using a laser cutter like you can find them in most FabLabs.
