cody1200 Posted June 5, 2017 Report 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
Members Deuce Posted August 19, 2017 Members Report 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
Members Grey Drakkon Posted August 26, 2017 Members Report Posted August 26, 2017 A bent wire should do that as well, depending on the stiffness. Quote

Members Nuttish Posted March 16, 2018 Members Report 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
