Yes John,
Thin-sections are amazing, like looking in the heart of a meteorite. And John Kashuba takes great pictures of them. Do you read his column in Meteorite-Times.com?
You can also see some of his pictures on my website, along with many thin-sections. And yes of course they are available.
Thanks.

Hello Steve,

Nice to hear from you. I will Always treasure the 30+ thin sections
that I recieved from you. For all others that have not had their eyes
on a meteorite thin section during cross polarization - you Will Not
believe what you are seeing - absolutely beautiful.

The current 3-D work and previous work by Kashuba and Phillips (and others--sorry)
is spectacular. But, to see it live only amplifies the beauty of it.

As Steve stated, with some innovation and very little cost it is possible
to get a very good rendition of what they have to offer as eye candy.

Tracy,

If you can get those 3D poloroid glasses that are used for modern 3D movies, just pop out the plastic poloroids and cross them till
they turn black. Staple or tape them together.? Place the slide between them and any microscope will show amazing details.

Not as good as a quality petrographic microscope, but for one that just wants to see some amazing detail in a thin section that
will do just fine. One can also the two use it with a hand lens.

I have a friend who likes to do microphotography; he can produce fascinating 3-D images.? I've loaned him some of my meteorite
specimens and he loves taking pictures of the crystal structures, especially if there are voids or vugs.? Last time i spoke with
him, I mentioned thin sections and wondered if he would be interested in trying microphotographs of that.? Turns out he is VERY
intrigued by the prospect.

Now comes the fun part.? I don't usually go in for thin sections, having none of the microscopes or polarizing filters to make them
pop.? Does anyone have one or two they would be willing to part with inexpensively so I can let Gary have a crack at them?? They
don't need to be anything rare or unusual for a first foray; if it turns out he likes them, I will have started him on a new bad
habit :)

Best!
