    sharpening question

    If you buy cheap you’ll buy twice. If you’re already ordering templates then just grab the kit that has the stones. Save yourself some headache. I built a power hone for rough shaping. Then use the 600,1200,2000 Lindsay stones.

    WANTED——Used Graverhone

    I built mine own. Works great. Around $140 I believe. But I also added unnecessary parts. You could achieve it a lot cheaper.

    Printer

    Homemade articulating stand for microscope

    This stand fortunately did not require any screws into it. The vesa plate adaptor on the stand is what I'll call a 'clip in'. It took me a few hours to find one like this but the pla fixture was shaped to slide in and lock. When I'm away I swing it over the desk with it resting maybe an inch...

    Homemade articulating stand for microscope

    I grabbed an old drill press for a stand so that really helps with my distance to the work. As far as the arm it's great, has a tensioner spot right in the crook of the arm so just tight enough to not drop but loose enough for full range motion.

    Homemade articulating stand for microscope

    Latest build. Used a computer monitor stand and 3d printed a part to connect it all. Works great! pla print is holding up great as well. All about $60 invested for a great working articulating stand!
