Does the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/openflexure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openflexure</span></a> block stage also set the layer height? How do you control the extrusion flow?</p>

I've been working on #OpenSourceHardware #microscopes for #plankton, starting with #Planktoscope. Due to unsatisfactory optics and software, I began modifying the #OpenFlexure for flow imaging, creating the #FlowFlexure #microscope. This version includes a peristaltic pump and tube holder, fitting into the existing structure. The #OpenSCAD integration isn't perfect, and I'm seeking collaborators. Next steps are documentation and integration into the Client. #OSH #GOSH
