@funkylab @tubetime micromanipulator needle probes (for probe stations)

@MissingClara @tubetime oh.
ouch indeed.

@funkylab @tubetime eh the actual needles seem okay(?) and they're not hard to get anyway, they're even DIY-able per your specific spec. the micropositioners themselves seem okay, and the needle holder arms can be bent back or replaced. they just need a little bit of love and I bet they'd be back into working order.
