Hi
I have an XY on a stage which does not move a slide laterally due to a missing part which locates on the stage and the claw wraps around one end of a slide.
To rescue the stand what I want to do to is find an XY mechanism which will clip over the edge of the stage and be secured by a thumb screw.
I can't find one, although I have seen these in the past, and I wonder if any member has any suggestions for a source.
The suggestions can helpfully extend to other solutions if any spring to mind as others must have encountered this problem before.
Many thanks
John

Hi
Perhaps it would help if you told us what microscope you will be using,
or post a picture of the same.
there is a lot of selections out there?

I don't know about these specifically, but I have handled a few other microscope parts currently made in India, and their mechanical quality was not satisfactory. Certainly not on a level with the original Laboval (Zeiss Jena) scopes.dolmadis wrote:Anyone any experience with these please?

PS - My preferred solution would be waiting out until a suitable Zeiss Jena stage with micrometer, or even a complete stand "for parts" becomes available.
