Hi Lukasz To hold the paper in place, I glue two pieces of thick cardboard of about 2 cm2 to the inside of the can. I place one near the bottom and one near the top, both in line with the pinhole. The paper I use is cut to the length of the inner circumference of the can less 3-5 mm. This keeps it safely in place.
In some cases, instead of cardboard, I used those self adhesive felt squares that you can buy to stick to the ends of the legs of your chairs to prevent scratching the floor. In a more elaborate version, I drill four holes and weld nails that I have cut to approx. 3mm length into the holes. This technique was necessary when I prepared fairly small cans (5 cm diameter).

Do you use a tape that has both sides adhesive, or a normal one-sided tape? How do you make the paper stick to the camera's wall? Thanks in advance, Best regards, Łukasz ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Tego nie znajdziesz w żadnym sklepie!
