TURNING AN 30+ YEAR OLD MICROSCOPE INTO A MORE MODERN MICROSCOPE.
During the proces of adding a DIY custom made microscope scanning stage to my microscope, I decided to also make some modifications to some of its parts. In this case I fixed the "lamp" socket.

Lamp socket fix:
Since the lamp socket was quit heavily used in the last 30+ years and quite worn out, I wanted to create a socket where you can put the power plug in without the plug moving or hanging weirdly resulting in failure over time. The design and solution I came to was as follow.
