1.Find two tubes with different diameters.Look for tubes made of sturdy materials, such as PVC. This will ensure that your microscope will hold up over time. The small tube should be just small enough to slide along the inside walls of the large tube.
• Make each tube approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) long.
2.Line the tubes with black paper. The functioning of a microscope will be diminished if light enters through the side of the tube. To improve the microscope’s ability to function, line the sides of the tube with black paper. This will help absorb any excess light.
•If you use a thick, opaque material such as PVC, the black paper is not necessary.
3.Fasten a lens to each tube. Super glue a lens on the end of each tube. The diameter of the lens should match the diameter of the tube. Use a moderate amount of glue and make sure not to get it on the inside of the lens. Allow the glue to dry before proceeding.
• Use lenses with short focal lengths. For example, you could reuse the lenses from disposable 35mm cameras to make a microscope. Or you, could order lenses online.4.Slide the small tube inside the large tube.Place the open end of the small tube inside the large tube. You now have a lens at both ends and the ability to move them closer to each other. This allows you to view objects and focus on them using your microscope.
•Focusing this type of microscope is done by simply sliding the lenses close together or further apart until a clear image is obtained.
5.Cover each end with a rubber disc. Cover the edges of each lens by gluing on a rubber disc. Be sure that the discs do not cover the center of either lens. This creates a buffer between the lens and other objects. It also makes the microscope more aesthetically pleasing.
