Making a pinhole camera April 2013

So, while waiting for my Solargraph to take shape i’d decided to build a pinhole camera.  My ‘film’ was again going to be 5×7 black and white photo paper.  I had a dig around in the garage, found some wood, purchased some glue and black spray paint and gave it a go.  I knew I needed a light sealed box with a very small hole at the front opposite the photo paper.  The best way to do this seemed to be make a large hole in the wood, cover with tinfoil and make a hole with a pin.  I also needed a crude shutter.  Below are a few photo’s of my making process:
