Not at first.  :^)

The little foam strips that hold on the diffuser leave a bit of a gap
between the wood and the plastic at the bottom.  So I insert the two
filmstrips from the bottom up through this little gap.  They protrude out
the normal slot on top.

Due to the spacing of the foam strips, this makes the two film strips
overlap a little.  So I used it for a while the way it was, then I yanked
off the diffuser to give myself a little more room.  I plan to cut a new
piece of diffuser material just a bit wider so the strips don't overlap.

Have I mentioned what a cool viewer the Saturn is?  :^)
