Extended Rack, and Table Surface, For USB Microscope Stand

thingiverse

These are two minor add-ons for an exceptional microscope stand conceived by "octo" (thing: 2525155). I realized the original rack was not tall enough to accommodate my requirements, so I took octo's innovative design and elevated it, enabling me to position taller items directly under the scope. The clip-in work table was swiftly created for items that won't fit beneath the base, allowing them to rest on top while still being accommodated beneath the lens. Initially, I encountered a minor setback during the design phase when I intended to precisely match the curves of the existing base. However, upon reevaluation, it became apparent that my initial attempt was flawed in the Y-axis dimension. Fortunately, the design functions perfectly well as is, eliminating the need for further modifications. If future adjustments become necessary, you can be assured that I will document them here. Full credit to octo's brilliant design: It has been nearly perfect for my needs (after extending the rack), and was significantly less complicated than other available options on this platform. I also greatly appreciated the sturdy construction and large knobs, which were ideal for my fingers' unique shape. P.S. Take a guess where I ran out of blue filament! :D
