Hello. We have a scalar brand scope-on-a-rope, hand held microscope 
at our museum and it is hugely popular. It is on our floor for 
visitors to use unassisted. I would like to know how other museums 
have secured the cord to take stress off of the two connection points 
(one to the base and one to the hand held scope). Duct tape has been 
working, but we are now looking for something a little more permanent 
and elegant. Replies can be sent to me off the list.

Thanks,
Tabatha
