Abstract: A photo processing work station which facilitates application and drying of coatings to instant photographic prints is disclosed herein. The work station is a small, portable unit which includes a first shelf having a coating area and a utility area thereon. Attached to the first shelf is a means for covering the first shelf and a vertical backing member which includes a second shelf attached thereto. Located on the second shelf is a print dryer unit for drying the prints. The print dryer employs a high velocity fan for directing air onto a print so that it may be rapidly dried without the use of a heating element. In use, the instant photographic prints are located on the covered coating area, a chemical coating is applied and the prints are then physically moved into the print dryer unit for drying. The work station is advantageous in that it is simple, ergonomically designed and allows for rapid drying of prints without the problems associated with prior art methods.

Abstract: A tomographic marking device is disposed in an electron microscope between a goniometer stage for holding a specimen and a fluorescent screen for displaying a magnified image of the specimen. The device comprises an externally geared, ring wheel, having a pair of spaced-apart, colinearly disposed pins fixed to the inner periphery of the wheel and defining a straight line parallel to both the screen and the tilt axis of rotation of the goniometer stage. Because the magnetic lenses of the microscope rotate the magnified image on the screen, means are provided to rotate the wheel and to indicate the position of angular rotation of the tilt axis of the goniometer stage located on the screen relative to the actual tilt axis of the goniometer stage.
