mounting fixture

[P3D KENNETH LUKER <KLUKER@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Paul Ivester says:
"... the mounting must be accurate.  I use a fixture that I built which ...
allows moving the slide from side to side... Magnifier lenses above the
slide allow viewing the slide in stereo while adjusting the window.  I then
tack the film chips in place and then heat seal the mount."

Paul, 
I'm very interested in your setup also.  I've thought for a long 
time that the best way to set a stereo window, or for that matter, 
to get an accurate mounting job overall, would be to use a live-action 
device where one could watch the window and the masking in real 
time, as the chips were being mounted.  My eyes are too far-
sighted and too aged to be able to see the window accurately 
without optical aid, so I end up trying a setting, putting the trial 
into a viewer and seeing how close it is, then making adjustments 
and trying again.  Can you share a diagram or a detailed 
explanation?  _______________________________________________________________
