Making Microscopes

Our first, most exciting day of the project. We used a webcam, dismantled it, and flipped the lens over, to make it a microscope.

We then had to design a stand for it, and make it look presentable. We were also given glass slides, and got some dirty water, to see for any moving particles through the microscope! It was fun, as some of us did spot some transparent fast-moving organisms in the water!
