But George your being toooo modest. What about all that great work with
the red button viewer! With regard to my hacking skills no I don't come
close to some on this list but I can do basic modifications quite well.
I have modified a viewmaster with 8x loupes and this is one of my 
easier projects. I didn't do a nice a job as Alan but it works very
well. All I did was saw off the lens and surrounding casing of the VM
and then put the loupes in there place then put some aluminum paper
(blackened inside) where the voids were. George don't you know by now
I have basic hacking skills. Have you forgotten my famous conversion
of a VM viewer to view 35mm full frame 3d slides and Realistic format
slides as well! We had a long discussion about it many digests ago.
