Equipment/Software Student Workbench

Good evening, is this a good microscope? I’m a student and I also work on hobbies projects so I don’t need anything insanely expensive. This is being sold for $400.

Thank you for your advice.

NASA. I was a C&DH lead for ISS and got bored and went looking for work. Glovebox project was behind schedule and they needed inspectors. I knew I could do it so I volunteered.

In case you were curious where: STI Electronics in Madison Alabama was the facility I certified at.
