I'll start....

Serviced/cleaned my bosses ophthalmoscope this week (mine's exactly the same) and I thought some people on here might be interested to see how the internals look/work.....

I took the other half of it apart too, but forgot to take pictures as it got a bit fiddly

Job done!

General mechanical fitter's tool set - spanners, sockets and ratchets, pliers, hacksaws, just about any metal hand tool you can think of.
