X-pan slide mounts other than by GePe

[andrewmore]

I bought the last stock of fold-over self-sticking card mounts from Mr CAD in Croydon (UK) and have used them all up - due to limited demand (only me it seems), they won't be making any more.

I want to mount my slides and store them in 'ArrowFile' folders in ring binders - I won't be projecting them.

I then will be scanning these by laying the slide in its mount down in the 5"x4" film aperture in my Epson Perfection 3200 Photo scanner - eccentric perhaps, but seems to work well.

GePe seem to the only slide mount maker left (I've searched this forum and the web as far as I can) - are there any others? I don't really want to have to use the expensive glass-mount system unless I have too, nor want to have to just store the slides as film strips and scan these using the scanner's 35mm negative mount adaptor.

I note that Mamiya make a mount for the 35mm panoramic adaptor for their 7II camera - but they seem to be made of paper. Can anyone shed light on their experience of the Mamiya product please?

I hope that someone can help me.

Regards

Thank you Mr Gough - most helpful. I found some more of the card mounts from Mr CAD when looking for something else in the black hole that is my storage system, but they really are the last ones. These Mamiya mounts look as they will be the best future option.

I knew someone on this forum would know the answer!!
