Signing UpStep 1Finding the base components
First you must find something to put your dslr in, so take it with you to a hardware store. We used a drain in which the lens fitted perfectly.
Saw off the square end of the drain and measure the diameter on both ends of the drain. Now saw these two circles out of plexiglass. Then drill a hole a little smaller then the smallest of the two diameters in a pvc end cap. Glue the smallest plexiglass circle in the end cap(on the inside) and glue this to the small end of the drain. Make sure there are no scratches on the plexi, because this is where you make the pictures through. Also make sure you remove the protection foil before gluing.
