Hmmm.... where did I ever say that I wanted to buy even 1 of these
mounts?  I only wanted to know what standard they were based upon.

I certainly understand the economics of stereo photo market, and that is
why I design and make all my own stuff!

OK, so let's boil down and ferment this information on the various full
frame one piece mounts.  If one where to spec. a one piece full frame,
dual orientation mount that accepts the standard single mounted 35mm
slide and would be most useful for projection and viewers, what would it
be?  Would it be a material change on a currently available mount
(Franka), or a re-introduction of an older size mount made from metal?

Somehow, to me, it always comes back to using dual full frame projectors
with single mounts and just living with it, but I would like to
understand all of the opinions on this topic.

It's even cheaper to buy two used Ektagraphic projectors than one
Realist projector.

But if you are only taking horiz. format full frame, then it makes sense
to stick with the Realist format viewers and proj. by using the RBT full
frame Realist size mount.
