3M overhead projector parts

I need a fresnal lens for a 3M model 1700 overhead projector. I have dealt with MB Electronics before and although it is a good company their prices seem to be retail. This is a very expensive lens, (over

50.00 ). Does anyone know of a 3M parts wholesaler? Thanks. Lenny Stein, Barlen Electronics.

Do you know the size? I grabbed the large lenses from a pair of 3M overhead projectors that were on their way to the dump. I can take some measurements and photos, if it will help.

in Santa Ana, California is a huge audio-visual parts supplier and they have all the 3M parts.

The customer had removed the original so I can't measure but if you could tell me what the measurements of yours are perhaps I could see if the school has another of these units and compare it with yours. These lenses are very thin, about 1/16" and about 12" square if I had to guess. Do you recall how the lenses were held in place? That would also provide a clue as to what model projector they may have comeout of. Thanks, Lenny.
