Went shopping recently and bought a pasta machine, then I thot WOW! I need a pasta drying rack. Bed Bath & Beyond only carries them online so I decided to look up some and find the simpliest and make my own. Above is the result. Only put .99 cents into the precut dowels, the rest was scrap wood and screws.

This evenings project = spinach noodles.

I would venture to bet that microscope would work just dandy, it should have a 40x objective lens and that powerful enough to see most things! I definitely think there are resources online that have detailed instructions on how-to do a fecal check for various things, and clear pictures of what to look for.

I am so impressed! I never even thought to do it myself! Let us know if it works!

ChickwannaB - good luck with those noodles! My late husband and I made them one time!
This is a very resourceful thread!

I'm having a vet do the first test and then researching info as Raz suggested on doing it myself for next time.

ChicwannaB- lets us know they turn out....nothing better than homemade noodles.

I was expecting the eggs to start slowing down now, but got a dozen yesterday and 14 today. I finally got my tube lights hung the other day and was trying to figure out the timer. I'm really not an idiot, but I have never been able to figure this thing out. I bought it when I had finches and tried to set it but never got it to work. Now I'm trying again, and of course I threw the instructions out. Anyone have one of these and can explain in simple terms so I can set it?
