Four Amazing Microscope Techniques on One Condenser

In the lab with a pen and a pad! Figuring out new little tricks as Diet Tom's continues to spool up! I posted some more information about how I did this on the Microbe Hunter forums - check it out if you're curious: www.microbehun...

That's Awesome! How much is the equip you used in this video?
