It's finished!

My pin-hole camera is finished! There were a few minor setbacks, namely that the PDF template I downloaded was inaccurately sized, but after some adjustments, it is now complete.

This is the inside portion:

The film gets sandwiched between two pieces of cardboard, with a frame opening up to the inside of the light-tight box.

This is what that part looks like all closed up and from the front:

You can see the tiny pin-hole on the aluminum in the middle.

And here's the finished product:


The above picture, in my opinion, is misleading as to the size of the camera, so here's another:


Today was a rainy, gloomy day, so I haven't started photographing yet, but whenever that takes place, I will post the results. I'm pretty stinkin' excited!

P.S. Here's a link to my flickr page, if anyone cares. I haven't updated it in a while. I might do that tomorrow.

Did you do this design? Not only is it crafty - its adorable.

Thanks, but no, the design was a part of the PDF template. I am considering doing my own design for another one, though. Also, I'll post the link to the templates when I'm on a computer (I'm posting from my phone right now). A coworker directed me to them on boingboing.com
