for really thin cameras, corrugated cardboard works well. It also allows you to have several different sizes blocked out since the paper/negatives will go over the other dividers. andy schmitt

Leave a little slack, or it might be difficult to get the negative back out. For flat filmplane, the box-in-box design Lisa described works well with cardboard or foamcore. If the boxes fit well, the overlap forms a good light trap. -- Scott Sellers mailto:scottsell...@mindspring.com _______________________________________________ Pinhole-Discussion mailing list Pinhole-Discussion@p at ??????? unsubscribe or change your account at http://www.p at ???????/discussion/
