    I don't consider myself much of a flat boarder, but I would be willing to trade you a nice sturdy table for that saw!

    Ok, I have a stupid question. Where did you get the graduated color backdrop thingy for your photo tent?

    "...Where did you get the graduated color backdrop thingy..."

    Search for "varitone photo backdrop". There's tons of vendors...

    Jay, the best price I found, and the vendor used by several on the creek, is Phototechinc.com and I use #39. Steve Schlumpf recommended this vendor, and I was very pleased with the product, service and price.

    John,
    Nice "tent", very nice goblet thingy(?), and a remarkably pristine shop. What a show-off.

    Nice tent John but what did the finished picture look like?

    Nice photo tent John....but the table you have for your turnings and your photo tent is nice and sturdy.

    Maybe I'll get in my shop when cooler weather arrives and see if I have a table like that under my turnings.
    Thanks & Happy Wood Chips,

    What I can't figure out is why you get such nice pictures? I built a special photobooth with all the lights, the shrouds, a great camera, nice backdrop...and I STILL can't take a decent picture.

    Maybe I should put my booth on the tablesaw.

    Hart, it may be the tablesaw, but I am betting the secret is the blue styrofoam in the windows!! Not sure why, but it seems to be the only difference in our setups!

    Well, of course, there is the difference that I am using a CHEAP camera!

    Rub it in John!

    I will tell ya this, that if Hart's work in photography equals his work on the AW website, He doesn't have a thing to be embarrassed about!

    That is one nice website!
