for 1/2" plywood I would epoxy in a T-nut rather than screw in a
driver...With a little bit of work they can be made completely flat. Don't
forget to throw some of the epoxy over the inside end so you can seal it up
& paint over it to insure light tightness...
have fun

Subject: [pinhole-discussion] Camera construction - tripod socket

Group,

I have made a couple of pinhole cameras but cannot come up with a method for
embedding a 1/4 20
nut in the base for a tripod socket. Both cameras are made of 1/2 inch
plywood. I would like
for the embedded nut to be flush with the bottom.

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated,
Bob

p.s. On one camera I have access to the inside, but the other is sealed.
