At the Italian Institute of Technology, we got a Leica STED-CW and home built an FPALM on an inverted Nikon thanks to software sharing from Sam Hess Lab, University of Maine. We home built a WLL and a CW STED controlled by MPI Nanobiophotonics software. We are currently interested n the Nikon N-STORM. 
All the best
