The little 'z-galvo' stage on our Leica SP2 seems to have died.  Does anyone have an old system and are willing to sell parts from it?  This is a Marhauser-Wetzlar "Z-Tisch" motorized stage that  screws to the top of the regular stage on the upright microscope.  It has a range of about 170 um.  We could just do without it but it is the only way to do an ZX scan on the SP2.  Leica wants a lot of money to replace it and we no longer have a service contract.

Thanks in advance.
