SemGarage History

Somewhere in 2021, while I was idly browsing the internet, I stumbled upon an electronic microscope on a classifieds website. Destined to be dismantled and sold on eBay, on June 14, 2023, I made up my mind to purchase the instrument, intending to restore it and turn it into a hobby, but most importantly, an educational experience for myself and my children. The rest is the story that I hope we will write together, and that you can read on the pages of this website.

Electronically yours,

DrGab

Who's DrGab?

I am Gabriele, a 44-year-old emergency physician, afflicted with an insatiable passion for physics, electronics, computer science, and emergency medicine. I believe, among other things, that I have attention disorders: my interests blend together, producing unlikely effects... the purchase of the SEM is probably one of the craziest. I am the father of two children, J&A, whom I hope will find in the SEM a reason to develop a passion for science and technology. I am open to all advice and hope to encounter other enthusiasts who play with a microscope in their garage.
