Stained Glass Construction Paper Craft

I bought this tripod when I had to shoot stained glass windows in a 100+ y/o church for a calendar. I already had a Bogen 3068 that would hold up to 39lbs, but needed something with the additional height. At full extension, this tripod with a 3047 head held a Fuji GW670III rock steady through the exposures needed to capture the image. This and an old Gitzo Reporter now live in my car and are my standard tripods. Heavy, yes, but extremely sturdy. Highly recommended!

A solid must-have staple. The only thing I wish is that they came stained.

My first experience with paper developer was a disastrous gallon of Dektol, which stained every print. Ilford, mixed 1 9 has yielded me more prints than I would ever need in a typical session. The 1 14 dilution would likely benefit smaller sessions like my own, at the cost of longer dev times.

Absolutely love this trimmer! It is perfect for all my craft needs. It cuts paper and vinyl very easily.

stained the wood and looks great - versatile for sitting, posing, etc.

I usually use the craft sun print paper so this thick, watercolor paper is really lovely. Nice range of tones. I made some positives from digital negatives with it, and rely on this heavily whenever I am teaching a photography class. All you need is water!

I have used craft cutters over the years. This is a real professional cutter. I did a lot of research prior to purchasing the Rotatrim Pro. I love the 18 size even though I work primarily with 8.5 x 11 inch paper. Turn the paper either direction and you get a great cut. It takes a while to get used to the cutter because it is different than the craft type cutters. That is a minor problem.

Sorry to the reviewer below who clearly didn't know what he was doing but after 20 years in the craft this is the only paper I use. No, it is not the same as glossy. You do need to print it differently but the results are just lovely.

Expensive, but worth it for the quality of the glass and construction.

Good construction and protection. A must for your expensive glass.
