P3D View-Magic viewer

The best viewer for a 4x12 pair is the Alan Lewis "Freeviewer's Assistant". 
The side-by-side View-Magic needs more separation than that to work.

The photo shows it in wood, he now sells them in molded black plastic.  There
are two mirrors for one eye, with one mirror adjustable for separation.  There
is a slight difference in apparent size due to the longer path traveled for the
right eye, but it is not really noticable.  I use it all the time for viewing
pairs on my 19" monitor.
