AW: loading paper into a cancamera

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).

  Betreff: [pinhole-discussion] loading paper into a cancamera

  Hi there,
  I'm new here, so my question is quite basic, namely: how do you load (I
mean position) paper into a can camera? 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
