The Dutch scientist who made his own microscope is Antonie van Leeuwenhoek. He was known for his skill in crafting microscopes and using them to observe various microscopic organisms.

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek called the microscopic organisms he discovered "animalcules" as he thought they were tiny animals.
