I need the filters from that project printed, I can pay so long as it's reasonable, bonus points if you're in Calgary and can do the project semi-quickly (a couple weeks)


Let me know of you think you can help!

I'm Calgary born, but live in Ontario now. I could print/mail these to you for cost (probably under $20, with postage being most of the cost).


An easier/faster option may be to use on of Calgary's maker spaces, where you can simply book time on a machine. One example (of many): https://protospace.ca/

I have printed these and they are not all good for my objectives. You can get the best results by making a right size for every objective. I printed the darkfield stops by 1mm increments... Smaller ones for lower mag. and the larger for higher... So some experimenting is needed
