This is to use for the Viewing the Rock World slide viewer by Matthew Tarling: https://matthewtarling.github.io/outreach/

 

Not exactly a remix in itself, this takes the inspiration from Matthew and completely reimagines how to hold a slide. The idea with you being able to easily change from one slide to another.

 

This holds a 26x75mm slide (although 26mm is the vey dimension here) by sliding it in and securing with a clip. The holder and clip are printed independently and attached with super glue.

 

The holder itself friction fits (with incorporated spring things) into the viewer.

 

Important: print the slide holder body flat on the bed, but print the clip standing on one edge so the print lines run parallel with the direction of slide travel (so it's smooth). You might need to sand any rough edges to make it slide really smoothly.
