7. Coarse adjustments: Coarse adjustments are knobs that move the body tube up and down to focus on the specimen. These adjustments are reasonable enough for 10x magnification.

8. Fine adjustments: These are smaller than coarse adjustments and are used to fine-focus on the specimen. They are usually used in magnification equal to or more than 40x.

When you do the first rotate x by 45 and look at the cube from the edge  (y going front to back), the top to bottom of the cube (height, h) is taller then the length of an edge (call that x).  So you need to effectively rotate a rectangle (size x by h) so to opposite corners are above each other.  So divide the rectangle in half (corner-to-opposite-corner) and use a bit a trig to find the angle between the base and the diagonal.  And subtract that from 90 degrees.

Microscopes connect our realm to that of the microbes, which we can’t see with our naked eyes. It is much like a complex magnifying glass, and to operate it, one needs to know its parts. In this blog, I will discuss about the parts of a microscope.

If you turn it 45° on the x axis the frame of reference is the same for the object and the printer build space, the axis are aligned. For the second rotation they are not, you want to turn the cube 45° around it's y axis, not the printers y axis. Slicer does not do that, even if you switch to "local coordinates" it always rotates around the printers axis...

Yes, here's one of several ways to do it. Select the box, then select the rotate tool, Rotate the box 45 degrees on the Y axis, then Rotate the Box 45 degrees on the X axis and you have what you were looking for.

3. Clips: We use clips to hold the slide in place on the stage. Clips come with two knobs used to move the slide sideways and up and down.

2. Inclination joint: Sometimes, we need to tilt the microscope to view the specimen, usually if the workstation is a bit high. The inclination joint helps us to adjust the tilt of the microscope.

like the OP. I consider the coordinate system in Slicer to be very convoluted. However, In slicer it is 45 & 35.26 or the opposites.

Individual parts of a microscope are further divided into mechanical and optical parts. Mechanical parts are mainly used to maneuver the mounted slide and focus the lenses on the specimen. Optical parts consist of the lenses and the mirror that align the light at an angle, providing a bright field of view.

If I do that in 2.3.3 and depending on print setting profile it slices OK but doesn't put down external perimeters for the first few layer or reports that "there is an object with no extrusions on the first layer". Which is very weird as all profiles have the first layer set to 0.2!

For a cube of size x, the the height when rotated 45 degrees is (from the Pythagorean theorem): h = sqrt(2 * x^2).The rotation then is 90 - arctan(h/x)

I believe, it's a matter of expectation also, I didn't give it another thought last night when I answered. but I wasn't thinking

Base: The foundation on which the microscope stands. It provides stability to a microscope. Electronic devices like lights and switches are fitted into the base. One can hold the base and the arm for additional stability while carrying a microscope.

These easily portable, biodegradable microscopes can be used in areas struck with poverty and also for on-site checking of water samples.

1. Eyepiece or Ocular lens: Eyepiece lenses are attached to the top end of the body tube and have a small amount of magnification of their own. The magnified image is seen through this lens.2. Objective lens: Objective lenses are the closest to the slide and are embedded in the nosepiece. They can be of varying magnification. Light enters into the body tube through the objective lens.3. Mirror: Many microscopes do not come with a light source. Hence, the user has to rely on an outer source of light (e.g., sunlight). We adjust the mirror to align the source of light.Bonus: Although compound microscopes are easy to transport, they can never fit in a pocket. Foldscopes are origami-based microscopes that are small enough to fit in a pocket. These are made out of paper, and the lenses are 3D printed. According to creator Manu Prakash, “The capabilities of Foldscope are equivalent to conventional microscopes that cost thousands of dollars.”

@Neophyl: It depends, whether you view along x or y after having made the 2 rotations. To me, Prusa-Slicer looks ok. Compare it with this in OpenSCAD:

Affirm · 180-400mm f4 E TC14 FL ED VR Lens · RF 100-300mm f2.8 L IS USM Lens · 120-300mm f2.8E FL ED SR VR AF-S · M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-400mm f/4.5 TC1.25X IS PRO.

Body tube of the microscopeparts and functions

I did it in both 2.4.0 and 2.4.1 and its quite obvious that the cube is not vertical on the corner after the second rotate.  The corners should be directly above each other and they are not.  Dont need to print it to see that.  Its really really obvious, even before slicing.

As I don’t use openscad I’m afraid I can’t look at it. If openscad is doing the same then personally I would also view that as faulty. Doing the same in blender gives exactly the result I would expect with it being equal on any view, xy or z, and from the sounds of it what the original poster expects too. We obviously have different expectations.

The definition of a diffraction wave is a wave that bends or spreads out after it passes an edge or through a small opening in a barrier.

1. Stage: Slides are mounted on the stage. It is a flat, rectangular part attached to the arm’s lower end with inclination joints. It has a hole called an aperture in the middle through which light can pass into the body tube and then to the eyepiece.

This isnt about if the cube would print, its about the rotate function being messed up when more than one rotate is performed on an object.

4. Rotating nosepiece: The nosepiece is connected to the lower end of the body tube. The objective lenses are embedded in this nosepiece. We can change the magnification by rotating the nosepiece.

So the cube is on its corner, however, all the angles dont look like they are even. when i put the supports on the buildplate, they also suggest that it is "uneven"

CAD programs and the Slicer maintain their frame of reference and turn the object within it, therefor you have to calculate the angle for the above problem of turning the cube onto it's corner.

FreeCAD yields the same result as OpenSCAD. Of course, that +1 other program doesn't qualify as proof either but, unless they all do rely on the same faulty algorithm/library, the probability for it being correct increases:-)

Head: The head is a hollow cylindrical tube connecting the eyepiece lens to the objective lens. The light bends inside this tube before reaching the eyepiece lens. It is connected to the nosepiece. It is also known as the body tube.

If you rotate the frame of reference you get what Neophyl expects and what blender does (which makes sense since blender is about animating objects. If you turn your head 45 deg to the right it should end up in the same relative position to your body regardless of the position of your body. So if you turn the body in blender the frame of reference is turned with it.

Without the microscope, we could have never detected that germs cause diseases and food spoilage. We would have been in the dark about the presence of cells in our bodies. A whole other world in biology would have been left undiscovered without microscopes.

The advanced Olympus GX Series sets the highest standards for image clarity and resolution in inverted metallurgical microscopes.

6. Condenser lens: Some microscopes have a light source under the diaphragm. Condenser lens focuses the light on the specimen to render a detailed image. However, it is mainly found in microscopes with 400x magnification.

Arm: Arm connects the head to the base of the microscope. One can hold the arm and carry the microscope to the workstation.

Yes you can do some complex math etc, but if I do the same in some design software, for instance Blender and rotate X 45 followed by Y 45  I end up with the cube being perfectly corner to corner in a central line.  No math needed.  Blender (unless you redefine it) has the origin in the center and works quite well about this.  PS also has the origin in the center of the cube but doesn't do this.    Software functions like this should make things simpler.  Its not intuitive to say the least.

5. Diaphragm: The diaphragm controls the intensity of light that passes through the microscope. It is attached just below the stage. There are two types of diaphragm: disc and iris diaphragm.
