  1. Hi tooters, I seek some electronics wisdom today.

    I'm looking for something to cut thin tungsten electrode wires with (done under a microscope). The wirecutters used for electronics quickly develop little grooves and become useless.

    Is there a better solution which doesn't cost $500 ? Tried the bead-makers' cutters and they are not sharp enough for this. Any ideas ? Tired of ordering random wirecutters that don't work !

  3. I learned that you should never use a binocular microscope with only one eye.

    I'm working with a scientist with a lot of years under their belt but maybe not the best prior training. They seem unable/unwilling to use both eyes. For our compound scope, I know this is a problem because they need depth perception for certain manipulations. Is it also a problem for a compound microscope?

    Are there tips I can share to help them?

    thx!

  5. The Rose.
    I love the contrast in this ring, the bright floral pink of the cz, and the industrial clunky look of the setting.
