OpenScope

We are dedicated to making the OpenScope easy to assemble and use, even for the inexperienced user. We have put together a detailed instruction and compressed all 3d-printable designs into a single archive. For more help and troubleshooting - visit our Make Your Own page. There you can also find some helpful (and entertainig) videos. With these resources available, everyone will be able to build and use the OpenScope. In fact, we think putting together the OpenScope is a great engineering experience for beginners.
