At last weeks NSA Southwest meeting,
Robert L. had a small plastic light table
with a ruler taped to it. The ruler acted
as a ledge for the slide to sit on, as the
table slanted up slightly. He said his wife
picked it up at Michaels or MJD designs
and they could be found at most craft stores.

I checked out one of the many new Jo-ann
Fabric/Crafts stores popping up in So. Calif.
and found American Traditional Stencils
Embossing Light Table. The table was pre-
priced at $14.99, but it was on sale for $11.24!
It measures about 9" long and 6" high, so you
can actually get four or so stereo slides on it.

Thanks for the time,
