The QCC Posted November 15, 2015 Author Share Posted November 15, 2015 "Did you cut and mount this?" Yes, I first cut and mounted a 3mm slice, then ground it down to 90 microns. The microscope photos 3 and 4 were printed on 16" x 24" super heavyweight matte paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
