Description

This is a simple sample holder for peices of semiconductor wafers for optical experiments.

This component is part of the Open source optics project, whose goal is to radically reduce the cost of scientific optical hardware: appropedia.org/Category:Open_source_optics by the Michigan Tech's Open Sustainability Technology Research Group.http://www.mse.mtu.edu/MOST

Instructions

This open-source sample holder is designed to hold a semiconductor wafer part on a smooth 8mm diameter rod.

Use the OpenSCAD files to customize it for your application, print on your favorite open source 3-D printer and enjoy. The two components are held together by m3s.

Use the thumb screw from thingiverse.com/thing:30500

If you need the base go to thingiverse.com/thing:28133
