Students and technicians use the Blue Box to hold a working set of slides between sessions: a practical class’s slides, the sections for a project, or a batch of newly made mounts. Because slides grip in their slots, the box can be carried or tilted without slides sliding out and knocking together, and its lighter weight makes it easy to move between the preparation room and the microscope bench.
The shoulder does two jobs: it keeps dust away from the slides, and it shows at once which way up the box goes, so slides are not tipped out when the lid comes off. Number the slots and write a matching index on the lid, and the box becomes a simple catalogue of the slides inside.
