🔍 Looking for Loupes to repurpose (Las Palmas)
Hey community! Happy Monday 😊 I’m documenting the life cycle of the monarch caterpillars on my milkweed — grown from seeds I picked up at the Oakland Seed Library 🌱🦋 — and I’d love to take sharper, more detailed photos and videos. I’m looking for a set of loupes that I can attach or adapt for my phone camera lens. I’ve used loupes before and had great results, but my current clip-on macro setup isn’t cutting it. I even tried a handheld phone microscope, but it was too hard to keep steady for good footage. My next plan is to MacGyver a little loupe attachment for my phone — if anyone has spare jewlers loupes(even ones that have fallen apart), recommendations, or creative DIY ideas for this, I’d love to hear from you. Feel free to message me with suggestions!

older tech (woodside plaza)
Hi, I’m a Bay Area local who picks up old tech you’re not using anymore. Do you have a “tech corner” in your house where old phones, laptops, tablets, gopro end up? If so, I’d be happy to take them off your hands. Our group is collecting and refurbishing to give to homeless, low income and non profits that can't afford to buy. If you’ve got stuff that’s just sitting around gathering dust, send me a message and we can set up a time for pickup or drop-off. Thanks, and hope to hear from you soon!

Old Electronics (Burlingame Ca)
Hi, I’m a Bay Area local who picks up old tech you’re not using anymore. Do you have a “tech corner” in your house where old phones, laptops, tablets, and random cords end up? If so, I’d be happy to take them off your hands. I’ve been collecting old electronics on and off since college, and now I’m putting more time into it as a side project. If you’ve got stuff that’s just sitting around gathering dust, send me a message and we can set up a time for pickup or drop-off. Thanks, and hope to hear from you soon!
