Late breaking discoveries about Polaroid 600 film packs & Pinholes...

While helping Jennifer work out a pinhole camera using a box & 600 film I
came up with the brain fart of using Velcro to attach the film pack to the
PH camera. There seemed to be enough room (if carefully placed) to have
Velcro & still be able to slide the pack in/out of the auto processor (read
Polaroid camera).
It works...
Using the skinny part of the Velcro, I placed about a 1" square where the
pull tab joins the film pack. There is also a strip about 1/4" wide & an
inch long on the rear of the pack between where the battery is exposed and
the edge of the pack (on both sides).

With a 3 point attachment, the Velcro should have no problem holding the
pack firmly against the camera....

Of course I have already raced to Washington to Copyright, Patent, and
Register this idea so no one else can do it... except you all !!
Let me know how you make out...

Have fun
