The one I have can project 120 format and 35 format slides. When I got it, it had a bunch of glass slides measuring 2 3/4 x2 3/4 inches and 3/16 in think that would never have fit into a carousel. I just did a search on ebay and came up with the following, just to give you an idea of what they look like and how they work. http://tinyurl.com/6ccnto http://tinyurl.com/568qwt http://tinyurl.com/6j7kmw http://tinyurl.com/5tj3zx As you can see, they can be had cheaply. I have no connection with the sellers. Just thought it might help solve your problem. Cheers, Bogdan Christina Z.

The frame is quite thick and will not work in my slide projector. The slides will descend but are heavy enough to stay in the slide "hole" and not come up by the spring mechanism, and I don't want to tax the spring mechanism of my slide projector. I figure if I could google a model number I might have better luck finding some such thing on ebay.
