Re: query: magic lantern slide+holder sizes

David Blair

 

Are looking for the dimensions of the wood slide mount rather than the thickness etc of the glass image? I am afraid you will find there was very little standardisation in those days. A lot of ours are 175mm x 100mm outside dimensions, thickness being typically 10mm but it can vary quite a lot.

to complete a 3d model I'm preparing to output to a laser cutter,
I'd like to ask if anyone has at hand the standard dimensions of:
a single slide, or a multiple [e.g. x 3] slide
I'm looking for wooden frame height, width, and thickness, plus the
diameter of the round glass slide.
Sorry for what is an obvious request... I haven't found the info online,

thanks,
David Blair
