Look at this bad boy:

This is a microscope lamp, to go with the microscope given to me by a retired professor. It needs some cleanup and work - notably, the cord is probably a fire hazard. This will make the microscope 100% more usable - I tried using a flashlight on a 3d printed mount, but results were subpar. This has both a focus and an iris, so I can dial in the right light. I may even get better results than my newest microscope.

There is a SOG factory store between his house and mine, so I stopped in and picked up this:

It's right between a Leatherman Juice and a Leatherman Rev in size, and has fewer tools than either. The advantage is the SOG assisted (one handed) open, the geared pliers, and the bit driver. I have an attachment for the Juice with a bit driver but it kinda sucks, and the Rev doesn't have a bit driver.

The Juice is still the most useful multitool I have ever owned, with the only problems being No one-handed open and no locking blade. The Rev has a locking blade, but no one-handed open.

Nothing is perfect. I'll try this out for a while and see if it works well.
