| I also created a rough cardboard model of how my microscope will look. I found this extremely helpful as now I can work out what size to make my microscope housing and how it will all fit together. I think my design will be somewhat successful due to its simplicity- it has no moving parts that are liable to break during its usage. | I also created a rough cardboard model of how my microscope will look.

| My perspex microscope housing is almost complete. I assembled it using superglue as hot glue would not hold the pieces together. All it needs now are the bolts glued in place on the movable shelf- this is where the specimens will sit under the lens of the camera. | |||
