Constructing my Foldscope
I ordered this kit and put it together. Because I didn't do it right the first time (failed to pull apart two of the magnets) I had to take it apart and do it a second time. Now the trick is to find just the right type of subject to magnify. Although the Foldscope is designed to be viewed with the naked eye, my old eyes don't really work with it. However, it also works with cell phone cameras! I will share my findings in a later post.
