Q
How to make a slide
A
Put a few drops of liquid in the concavity, and add water to thin it out if necessary. A dry mount slide can be prepared in a very similar way to wet mounts, except without the water. Place the object in the middle of the slide, and holding the cover slip at an angle, carefully set it on top.
