Philip: You been smoking those funny cigarettes again?
Maybe the BB gun thing would be a good WWPD project? I plan to attend the
PSPCS camera swap the day before WWPD. Maybe we can get together on the
27th? I'll bring the BB gun and film. You bring the cardboard - I'm running
low. -MM

Subject: [pinhole-discussion] weird idea for a pinhole camera
pinhole-discussion@p at ???
The martial mood of the country led by some
strange path to the following thought:
Take a light tight cardboard box made of fairly
thin cardboard: in the dark, securely tape film to two
inner facing sides, and seal box.
Take box outside, set it somewhere with a weight
on top of it (a brick or rock).
Stand away from the box, and fire a bb gun through
the middle of one of the sides. If the board is thin
enough, the bb should go through the box, through
the first film, through the second film, and out
again, causing 2 pinholes to be formed and
simultaneously taking a picture in both directions at
the same time!
After a suitable exposure time, drop a slightly
larger box on top of the first box to end the
exposure.
Has anyone done anything like this? Anyone want to
try it and let me know how it works out? I haven't
had a bb gun for, oh, 20 years, so I don't have the
technology available...
