I vaguely plan on making one for myself one of these days, but have yet
to do it. Along with a countless number of other DIY projects. ;]
Does anyone know of anything out there that could be easily converted to
be used as such?
Also, check out the "activity reports" in NANFA's regional outreach
section (http://nanfa.org/regional.shtml)
Some of the photos in those were taken using such a device, and in some
you see pretty well what I'm talking about.
