We placed are slides between sheets of polyethylene (cut from a thicker
baggie) with a sheet between each slide, then clamped the slides between
pieces of wood so as to NOT break the glass slides, using C clamps from a
hardward store to apply pressure evenly. Clamps come in all sizes, but one
can find them at Walmart too.
You can be as creative on this as you want - something cheap, fast and
efficient.
