Burnham Petrographics sells a box that looks the same as Wards' for $18.45.

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.

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.
Thanks in advance,
Leigh Anne DelRay
