That's a nice pinhole camera. Mine was a cardboard box.


...and mine was a Coke can!

Bored to the point of seeing what was in a cabinet.
While searching I found a couple of negatives from a class assignment back in the 1980's .
Assignment make a Pinhole camera , and make images using printing paper for film.
The shutter was off an old Ansco folding camera, lens replaced by a .0135 pinhole in .002 brass shim stock focal distance 10" exposure time's 20 mins +/-
Contact printing time on the Train Depot building between 60 & 70mins most of which was getting detail in the foreground. The instructor accused me of using a film neg tp make the final print, she said there was no way to get the detail I had in the foreground, I open my folder a pulled out 8 test prints showing the "map"and progression to the final print then challenged her to come to the dark room for a demo. She had never heard of burning a contact print!
I got my grade but never got a date with her Oh well

You did an excellent job on the train depot negative, you are obviously very patient. And your box camera is excellent. The bricks are very sharp. How long ago did you make these images?

I have also made some paper negatives on a very thin, translucent paper I got when I was in Japan. I then put the paper negatives in an enlarger and made prints from that. The paper had a lot of texture in it that made it fun to work with. Like you, I used film backs for making the exposures to quickly put in or take out the dark slide.
