Slide frame holder for PASCO Optic Bench

thingiverse

I'm a big fan of PASCO Physics products. However, I recently realized that I was missing something crucial last week. I conducted an experiment with my students using an Optics Bench along with a Diode Laser and a diffraction grating. The experiment's objective was to determine the laser wavelength with the aid of a diffraction grating. Unfortunately, I didn't have the necessary holder for my diffraction grating that could fit snugly into a standard 5x5 cm slide frame. So, I decided to take matters into my own hands and create one myself. Here are the print settings I used: Printer: MetaQuip 2D lasercutter Notes: I opted for 3.0 mm thick black acrylic sheet and employed a lasercutter for this project. Post-Printing Requirements: 1x M3 bolt with a countersunk head and a flat top 4x M3 bolts along with their corresponding nuts 2x M5
