cody1200 Report post Posted June 5, 2017 Hello I was wondering if any of you had any tricks at photographing open wallets I've tried blue painters tape and it wasn't sticky enough I'm afraid to use something that may leave a mark on the leather. Any suggestions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deuce Report post Posted August 19, 2017 I find using old plastic (think old pop bottles or milk jugs), heat them just a touch and form to the needed shape, then insert into the wallet so it can't be seen and you are good to go!! Hope this helps ... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grey Drakkon Report post Posted August 26, 2017 A bent wire should do that as well, depending on the stiffness. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nuttish Report post Posted March 16, 2018 Pardon my being late to the game, but I was looking around for photography tips and saw this underused forum. Pieces of 22 gauge steel strapping cut to length, ends covered in duct tape because I was too lazy to file them smooth, bent to shape. This is just what I had laying around. It's springy, holds its bend nicely, and you can get as much as you want from the dumpster behind Lowes. Steel from empty mineral spirits and acetone cans is also good. Be careful of sharp edges. Removable double sided tape to hold things like flaps down and pockets closed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
