3D Slide Viewers, Stereo Cards, Movies, Realist Hot-Shoe

[P3D Jerry_Gore <jgore@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Lots of questions:
1. Anyone know where I can find a $25-30 slide viewer with focusing, lighted 
    back, glass lenses? Or do I just save my money for the Star D-II (I'll be
    saving for an awfull long time, i.e. college student w/no job). And it
doesn't have
    glass lenses.  I need a Realist  format viewer. I bought some  el-cheapo
viewers     from Reel-3D which I'll use for now.
2. Does anyone know where I could find the cardboard like mounts for 3D Stereo
    Cards? I was thinking there might be some form of  mounts for these. It
would
    be great to be able to take two prints and put them side-by-side in some
kind
    of mount to reproduce a 3 1/2 x 7 Stereo Card. This way no special
processing     is needed  for the film. Simply get the prints, trim, and
mount. Any ideas?
3. Even though I couldn't possibly afford it right now: How are the 3D Movies
    distributed? Are they on videotape for use with shutter glasses (which I
have-
    just not the box for the VCR). Or, are they distributed as film which
takes a
    special projector? Who sells the films and/or projectors? 
    Besides 3D-TV who sells 3D video tapes? I'm very interested in old horror
    and action fims filmed in 3D. Is there a Web site that deals only with
old 3D
    movies?
4. I've noticed the Hot-shoe on the Realist is smaller than the ones used these 
    days. But, why can't I just get a moto-tool and grind down a more modern
    flash-foot to fit the hot-shoe? It looks like it would work and the
electrical
   connections are the same. Why mess with silly adapters? I actually pressed my
   modern flash unit against the contacts and got it to work on my Realist.
   I'm just bewildered why anyone would use adapters, and cords, and L-brackets.
   Is there something I should know before I grind down my flash-foot?
5. Looking for a leather cover for my Realist 3D camera. If you have an
extra then
   E-mail me at jgore@xxxxxxxxxxxx 

Thanks for any info.....................
