Achromatic Viewing

[P3D Dr. George A. Themelis <DrT-3d@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am very happy!  I conveted Alan Lewis' pocket stereoscope to 
a conventional unit by borrowing parts from the Keystone No. 50
Home Training Stereoscope.  I attached the achromatic scope
to the shaft (drilled a hole for the handle too) and are using
the cross bar too that holds the card.

The result is an excellent all-purpose stereoscope equivalent
to the monster brother in all respects.  It can be held very
steadily.  Very quickly I can detach the sterescope part and use 
it for the intented purpose by fitting it in my pocket and carrying 
it around.

The unit can also be attahed to a permanent base.  The possibilities
are endless and I am gladdd I now have a top quality portable
achromatic stereoscope!

Actually the Keystone Training Sterescope is a fine unit too
(and I have one for sale - check sell-3d right now!) but I would 
rather keep the achromatic scope.

I used my achromatic scope as-converted to view a wonderful set,
U&U Spain.  This set is filled with interesting images of people
and cities, instead of boring scenery or ancient sites.  If you
have a chance, get it.  You will find it an excellent set even
if you are not directly interested in the subject.
