I am very proud to auction the holy grail of Realist-format stereo slide viewers:
Later SHARP model - serviced by DrT
If you are looking for the best Realist Stereo Viewer ever produced, your search stops here!
This particular viewer has been serviced and upgraded by myself.
Here is a short summary of my work:
Took apart and cleaned every little piece, including (of course) the lenses
Polished the electrical contacts for flicker-free operation
Painted the interior white for bright & even illumination (painting the black surfaces white increases the back reflections and overall brightness of the viewer, without any side effects)
Installed friction feet at the bottom to minimize wear and increase friction when put on a table (so it doesn't slide and fall of the table - please be careful, the viewer is fragile!)
Installed an LED bulb ($20 value, available on my ebay store) - I love this bulb, it's the best! Note the stickers that show the correct orientation of the batteries (this is the revers of what is originally marked inside the viewer, and you must follow this one for the light to come on)
Adjusted the tension for interocular and focusing
Put together with extra care and a bit of lubrication only in key parts
Inspected and approved as worthy of being called one of the best "DrT" viewers
If you think that the price is too high, consider this: 1) Price of service = $50. 2) LED bulb = $20. Plus this is really one of the best viewers I have in stock. Not too high after all.
