I've had to postpone anything on that for the past few
months, as I've had neither time nor money to invest
in new projects. I -am- still interested in it, and I did
unpast a Realist-format cardboard viewer, so I have some
ideas for the complexity of the die that would be required,
but that's as far as it has gone.

At probably over $200 for the die, I don't know if the
volumes would ever be there for this to be viable
