Thanks Jake, It looks like we may have to rent a uhaul truck to move it as
it looks large?
Sounds like Ben has a place for us to store it and we have another Counter
Culture labs co-founder/member (Shanee) who knows how to use it and said
she could teach us :)

It looks like it would be fine sitting in a garage for
a few months, if
so, I have space.

That would be excellent!
Here's the user manual with all the specs:

It's a desktop machine, so doesn't necessarily take up any more space
than some bio equipment. Wonder how easy it would be to DIY a gold
sputterer...

I'm sure that Dr. X would be very pleased if
it went to Counter Culture
Labs. He just wants it to be understood and appreciated, rather than
sitting neglected. CCL should hurry up and buy the church building before
the price goes up on it, and I can help transport it.
It is basically an equipment rack and a cart of accessories, so it
doesn't take up a ton of room. But it's good to be able to set the
microscope and vacuum pump on different structures so that the vibration of
the pump doesn't shake the scope. Also, to take higher resolution pictures
it will be necessary to construct an analog data importer but that will
likely just be a computer with a slightly modified sound card and some
software.
keep in mind that to view organic (nonmetallic) things you will need a
gold sputterer.

I'd be very happy to help transport the
scanning electron microscope
and if
it can't fit into Sudo Room, I'd also love to float the idea of
potentially
housing it at Counter Culture Labs (the Sudo room DIY Bio offshoot)
when we
eventually open up. Any thoughts?
How big is the SEM (I know some of them can be huge which might prohibit
location)?
All the best,
Ryan
Best,
Ryan

sudoroom is being offered a scanning electron microscope (by Dr.
X).
it comes with all the stuff and actually works, but it requires
a bit of knowledge to operate it. unfortunately Mr. X is not
available to train us how to operate it, however Chris Murphy
may be available and knows how it works.
It would take up about 30 square feet of space including the
place where the operators sit or stand. It is not computerized
like the one at Pumping Station One, it is an analog machine.
Pictures can be taken at high resolution by long-exposure photo
of the CRT on the front of the machine, or we can build an
analog data importer to reconstruct images at much higher
resolution if we desire.
The cash price of this SEM is $10 in gas and tolls, I will
provide the vehicle and movement. The rest of the price of the
machine in blood and sacrifice is in the time and energy to
learn its intricicies and idiosynchracies while learning about
vacuum pumps and vacuum oil, and how not to let vacuum oil
contaminate your vacuum and get all over your filament.

ironically, one of the reasons it doesn't work as well at
noisebridge is because the whole place shakes when the city
buses ride by. and sudoroom is apparently directly over the
bart tunnel so i wonder how different it will be.
