Hello everyone,
I’ve just completed my first OpenFlexure “Low Cost” microscope build, and I wanted to share a quick report here. The microscope works really well, and I’m honestly impressed by the quality and capabilities of the project.
So far, I’ve tested it on a few simple samples such as baker’s yeast, onion skin, and salt crystals. Even with these very basic observations, the results are already very interesting and educational.
I especially like the image scanning system, which is a really powerful and enjoyable feature to use.
The only part that was a little challenging for me was tightening some of the screws located in the hardest-to-reach places. But with a bit of patience, everything finally went smoothly.
A big thank you to all the contributors and developers involved in this amazing project. The whole system is really well designed, both mechanically and software-wise.
I’m looking forward to exploring microscopy further with it!
Best regards,
Jean-Marc
