I have a number of Medium Format film cameras, two of which are 6 x 9 format. Looking at Kodak Ektachrome positives on a light box is simply amazing so I though I would make a desktop one that I can send as a gift.
Backlit with a simple battery-powered LED and the results are outstanding. The included images do not do the final product justice, that can only be appreciated in person.

Electronics

 

LED from LEDSupply, MicroPuck LED Kit (https://www.ledsupply.com/led-kits/micropuck-led-kit).

Parts attached together with epoxy and 4-40 machine screws and 4-40 brass Tapered Heat-Set Inserts for Plastic inserted using a soldering iron.

Positive sandwiched between two pieces of acrylic one frosted to promote diffusion of the LED light.
