      Hi Kallum,

      I think the most complex tool I have ever used is a Transmission Electron Microscope, a microscope so powerful that you can see individual atoms in it. I was constantly worried about breaking it because I wouldn’t even know how to shut it down if I broke something.

      Here’s a picture (not from our one, but it’s the same tool): http://www.science.oregonstate.edu/emfacility/?q=node/Facilities/Titan
