View Instructable »Made it in summer school class!! The older kids had to cut their own pieces of wood with a pull saw, sand, and measure/drill the holes. Little kids had the luxury of just screwing in the bolt and gluing on all the nuts!

I made 4 for our science lab!!! Don't have to worry about kids breaking the real microscope and great way to ease them into the world of microscopy :). Can't figure out the magnification from my setup, but I did use two of the Aziz? laser focus lens in the instructable's link. Thank you for sharing this wonderful tutorial and K-8 had a blast using them (and will continue using them for many more science labs).

Love this!! I took a class at the Tech Shop, but the teacher was a newbie and the tools were blunter than blunt. It was still an interesting experience but I can't wait to try this at home and make a better one!!!!

I couldn't find the glass ornaments anywhere locally so I found a small-ish fish bowl at Michael's. It was about 4 inches and a bit thicker than the glass ornaments I've seen in the past. Glued walnut to cherry and routed out the openings to accept the globe and battery pack. Velcro’ed the battery pack in with a tape flag to pull it out when batteries need to be changed. Fun and easy project!

I took the papercraft template into illustrator (or photoshop if you don't have that) and the I just scaled the paper template. Keep in mind that the costume is telescoping, so you might just wanna figure out the depth of the body (i.e. my daughter is 40" from shoulder to floor so I went with 8" depth and made sure it fit her body with room to move) and then just made 2 units for the body that is 20" and 16" tall. I eyeballed this plan and figured the legs are attached at about 1/3" of the way, so I measured from the bottom of the feet to the top of the body. I also made sure there was at least 3" overlap between the telescoping body parts at the max height (40"). Then you just take the ruler tool and measure the width/height off the paper template f...

Then you just take the ruler tool and measure the width/height off the paper template for the rest of the dimensions. Check to make sure it fits the person who will be wearing the costume. You might need to just tweak it on the fly.
aww thanks!! My kid loved it :) and that's most important to me :). Her costumes are my early bday gift to her every year :).
