My microscope has arrived.

A wonderful gift from a forum member,who will remain nameless until and if he gives me permission to publically thank him, which arrived yesterday.
It is an upright binocular unit capable of high magnification (up to 1000 times with current eye pieces.
The view seemed out so I dismantled the head to find one prism was unsecured which I fixed and now it works great ..like Markus (Stonius) I find it is USA voltage which I can sort out but being impatient took my astronomy head lamp and illuminated some moss in solution to have my first views..absolutely fantastic...heaps of little critters that I am able to name as I have been studying up on this..George Fred and Barry..and later I will be able to name their species.
I do not know why I didn't do this a long time ago.
Just so much fun.
Alex
