Leica wanted to charge me a small fortune for a darkfield slider, so I made my own.

This darkfield patch slots directly into the Leica Slotted Abbe Condenser (Leica Part Number: 13 613 550) common to the Leica DM500 and DM750 microscopes, enabling some cheap yet effective darkfield microscopy.

After extensive experimentation the central patch has been set to a diameter of 12mm, and the side grooves are precisely positioned to engage with the condenser's internal spring ball detent, snapping into perfect alignment with the optical axis.

I burned through a lot of filament iterating the design tolerances for this one so I hope someone out there finds it useful!

Print Suggestions

  • Material: Use a matte filament to avoid light scatter from the patch supports. Printing in a non-black colour will give a tint to the darkfield background. (The darkfield patch used in the example tardigrade image was printed with blue filament.)

  • Layer Height: 0.12mm - 0.16mm for smooth detent curves.

  • Infill: 100% for longterm durability.

  • Post-Processing: Depending on print quality the ball grooves may benefit from a gentle pass with a fine sandpaper.
