I’m getting better at focusing the toy EyeClops microscope camera I bought for $20. It takes a steady hand and a light touch. I’ve been looking at the edges of my cutting tools (still too scary to show in public) and at different woods.
It makes me feel like I’m in 8th grade science class again.
Above is a 200x photo of one of sawmaker Andrew Lunn’s crosscut teeth on a carcase saw. A couple more photos are below. If I keep using this thing, I’m sure I’ll come up with a great woodworking revelation. Or I’ll finally give up and just start looking at my ear wax.

I bought one too from your posts about it. I wanted it to see my edges on my plane irons. Great toy for the money. Thanks John
