Parametric slide dryer

youmagine

Slide dryers are specifically engineered to gently warm glass microscope slides, thereby significantly reducing the drying time required after cleaning steps. As a result, users can experience a notable increase in productivity. Commercially available slide dryers can be quite pricey, ranging from $225 to $5245. In contrast, this DIY project allows individuals to build their own slide dryer for a mere fraction of that cost, just $20.

This innovative project was spearheaded by Shane Oberloier as part of our ongoing efforts to develop open-source designs for Open Source Labs : http://www.appropedia.org/Open-source_Lab.
