4. here tis
I found some shelf space in storage, so it is now my "studio." I have changed the lights a bit, hoping to get the white balance close.

3. Hmmmmm . . . nice circuitry? ;-)
I'll chime in too, and would also like to see your box. I'm thinking I've got instructions to one somewhere but am too lazy to go look for it! :rofl:

5. It's not to hard to do.
BTW, that's an old hard drive that's been hanging around.

6. Comparing watch images. The first is the old version.
The second is done with the light tent. Glare was absent in the second shot, so I didn't have to tweak levels and contrast to remove the glare that was present in the first one.

12. It flattens out the light. It's like a light overcast day.
