NittanyJen Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Hi all, As a former research scientist and microscopist, this microscope is my hands-down favorite for teaching my kids microscopy through at logic stage, and it will remain my favorite for field work for as long as they remain at home, so I was really excited when I got The Happy Scientist's newsletter today with a note that Robert Krampf had negotiated a 25% discount off of not only the microscopes (and different lens packages with the scopes) but all the accessories, including dropper pipettes, petri dishes, slides, etc, through Homeschool Buyer's Coop! Yahoo! He has a video on HSBC explaining what he likes about the Brock. =============announcement from The Happy Scientist's newsletter======== Discount on Brock MagiscopeIf you are in the market for a microscope, I have worked out a 25% discount on the Brock Magiscope, the field microscope I use in the microscope videos. The Brock is my favorite microscope, sturdy enough to carry into the field, but with optics that are on par with much more expensive microscopes. This is the microscope that you see in many science centers and nature museums. They like it because it is very simple to use and stands up to a lot of wear and tear.

tjlcc Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Thank you for posting this. The Brock has been on my mental wish list for over a year now after reading your reviews in previous threads. I just took the plunge and purchased it, along with slides from Home Science Tools, as they seem fabulous. You made my day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceyS/FL Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 WE love ours!! Looking forward to it getting more use in this year. It was a big splurge a number of years ago at FPEA, but i'm happy to have done it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgr Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I've been contemplating this... Likely going for the microscope, but I'm not sure about the accessories. Does anyone have any thoughts re: if its worth buying the whole shebang now to make use of the discount? My eldest is 8, and we have a cheap toy-quality microscope with some very basic supplies.
