How to assemble your Foldscope

[@regularsandwitch7653]

I just relised this is the hardest creation with paper i have ever made

[@sidharthraj5664]

Did you completed it?

[@akshayplayz2493]

Ur not 8 -bit ur 1 bit

[@sajjadrajab3230]

No it's esy

[@herbertnatanael]

Same

[@bhawnaparwate82]

Yep

[@BillRehbock]

Foldscope team, two questions: 1) What's the purpose of the double-sided tape that goes between the coupler and the lens? 2) The magnetic flap has a hard time coupling to the stage magnet, especially with a glass slide inserted. Do you have any suggestion to make this work better? I assume it's required to hold the sample at a correct distance to the lens? By the way, this is an excellent video - the directions should have a link to it prominently at the beginning of the instructions.

[@akshatislit5437]

The purpose of double sided tape is to prevent the magnet from sticking to other magnets

[@catfish9539]

Thank goodness for your video. This was so hard with just the instructions.

[@FoldscopeInstruments]

Glad it helped! 🤓

[@ProfessorSimms]

Our kits only came with two couplers and what appears to be the lens already attached to a coupler, which is fine.. except when using the Foldscope with the phone coupler, the lens/coupler keeps popping out, even though it is inserted properly. Please help. I have already distributed these to online lab students.

[@Gearsub]

Once the foldoscope is ready, will it fit inside the pouch it arrived in?

[@FoldscopeInstruments]

Great question! Yes, the Foldscope fits neatly inside the mesh pouch it arrives in. 🤓

[@vasp_denia8207]

Spent thirty minutes trying to find a coupler and just ended having a mental breakdown

my dad bought this online, when i assembled it, its the hardest thing i ever did, but it was worth it just to see bacteria for the first time

[@debaduttabiswal9689]

Someone help me out! My focus ramp the connected ones got separated, any solutions for it please? 😞

[@FoldscopeInstruments]

So sorry to hear that! Unfortunately, the focus ramp is one of the fundamental pieces and if it is broken it will be very difficult to use the Foldscope. We recommend using tape to try to fix it - let us know if it works 🙏🏽

[@pallavivelmajala]

For the couplers, does it have to be a specific one, or can it just any coupler?

[@binayak6755]

You can use any coupler mam 😊

[@FoldscopeInstruments]

Please make sure you are separating the lens (circular piece) from the couplers (squares). They are magnetic pieces, a common mistake is people assume they have only 1-2 pieces, when in reality there are more, just all stuck together. If that doesn't solve the problem, please email [e-mail] reporting the missing pieces so we can help you 🙏🏽

Because it is magnet, it could be stuck to the coupler so make sure you have separated them adequately. If you still can't find it in your kit, please email us at [e-mail]
