So I'm working toward a new goal of local petrified wood ID. I started working toward that goal a few months back but my viewing scope just didn't have the power (or working distance I might need). The good thing is I can use this new one for searching micro fossil matrix as well. I still have my B&L for prep but it doesn't have the power or capability of my new scope either. My new scope is an AmScope SM-4TZZ-144A-18M3. If I'm allowed I'll post a link but if not you can look it up. It does 3.5X-180X comes with a 18mp camera and a .5 and 2.0 barlow. The ocular are 20X and you get a single 10X. I'm still working at getting the camera calibrated after I was "done" I realized the ocular do not affect the camera view so I have to start over. I need the FOV of the camera apparantly. It's thanks to work gift cards (a perk I enjoyed this year especially) that I was able to get this. My out of pocket was about 1/4 of the cost. Anyway here are some photos I've taken with it. Maybe ignore the scale as I'm no longer sure of it's accuracy. The photos aside from the claw (found in Sharktooth Hill sand and the wasp eye are pet wood)

So, I am starting to look into getting the required stereo microscope for doing abrasion prep work. I am not a rich man so going to hunt around for a bit before diving in. So far I am looking at a new AmScope SE410-XYZ. There are better ones listed with close to same price but those are auctions so price will probably climb still. Any here know this this machine? Is it decent or do I save a few more bucks?

I treated myself to a binocular microscope just before Christmas. Just showing off some amber inclusions with a little manipulation including stacking.
