Hi Barry,
Funny you should ask- I severely over exposed some sheet film and glued some velvet to it and cut it into compression strips. Amazing how springy the stuff is! Works very well if you don't crease it outright. I've been checking it every 6 months or so, and it's remarkably resilient; still keeps a very nice seal. I almost went with fingerstock, but could only find some rare berilum stuff that was staggeringly expensive. I had tried some thin brass shim stock, some vinyl weatherstripping and other things before I though about trying the film.
..I'm sure we can work something out. RobertRobert.
That is genius.
Care to sell one to a manufacturing-dysfunctional 12x20 F&S user?
Again really well done and executed.
Thank you Chris for the comment.
I never thought of the black flocked paper- do you know of a source for it? It's about time to check the light traps again. Thanks for the idea.
