The disk face is outlined for various optical elements so that the light coming through these slits strike them at correct angles. The disk is mounted on a heavy tripod base. A detachable lamp housing as a basic light source with 3-volt light bulb is included. Light source sends the parallel rays through the slit on the shielding screen. This set also includes acrylic optical elements (Lenses and Prisms, packed in velvet-lined case. Note: The optical elements are fixed on the metal disk by means of clamping screws. The light fixture is designed to accept alternative light sources such as flashlights and laser pointers.
