Nikon 33mm Filter adapter
Can anyone tell me whether the MXA20495 33mm filter holders are still available anywhere? These are key elements in Cark Hunsingers' design of a darkfield adapter for the Nikon Labophot condensers. I only need one to complete my set but all the sites I've looked at state "No longer available". I could try shimming with electrical tape but I suspect that centering would then be tricky. Are there other ideas for securing the tube in the condenser?
Thanks
Michael

Re: Nikon 33mm Filter adapter
I'm using the same Nikon Labophot Abbe 1.25 Condenser that was illustrated in the original article.
I do have your kit for darkfield/oblique and that works very well, but I also need a standalone 20x insert for another application, hence my request!
Thanks
