Strange Parts did a great video about, "A boy and his microscope..."[0]

We bought the same one 6(?!) years ago and still use it every day. It was ~$900 back then, looks like it's $230 now[1].

I had a really hard time spending that much back then, but it is easily the most valuable tool in our PCB engineering & assembly shop.
