COMPARISON OF SWIFT DICK PETROGRAPHIC MICROSCOPES

MODELS: 'LARGER PETROLOGICAL' or 'LARGER DICK PETROLOGICAL'

Dick microscope This image compares the 'Dick New Petrographic Microscope' with the 'Larger Dick Petrographic' model. The Larger model is about 20% larger, has verniers for the fine focus and analyzer rotation and a wormscrew focus for the substage. It also has larger stage, and a third gear both above and below. Note that the eyepiece assembly for this example of the 'Larger Petrographic' microscope is most likely an adaptation, not the original. For more images of the larger model see the Larger Dick Petrographical Microscope page. I am very grateful to the owner of the 'Larger' model for allowing me to share images with you.
