Burnham Petrographics sells a box that looks the same as Wards' for $18.45. http://burnhampetrographics.com/petropoxy/ppp.php http://burnhampetrographics.com/pdfs/pricelists/ppp_prices.pdf
More pictures here plus a do-it-yourself wooden version. The outside box held silver flatware. The top was fitted with a velvet pad that held the slides still. I don't use it anymore. http://johnkashuba.com/Pages/Meteorite%20Pages/Topics/Thinsectionstorage.htm -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Leigh Anne DelRay Sent: Sunday, January 04, 2009 3:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [meteorite-list] question for thin section collectors I was wondering if anyone could tell me the typical way that thin sections are collected. I know that they are on microscope slides, but do people typically keep those slides in an old microscope slide box, or drawer of some sort? Is there a protective type case that is typical of thin section collectors? My boyfriend is a custom woodworker, and it trying to figure out a way to build a storage case for these.
