I find pinhole cameras pretty fascinating and for some reason friday night, I got it in my head to Google it and found myself with a ton of information. Some guy has even built a pinhole camera from Lego.

This got me thinking that I didn't want to build a pinhole camera from a Quaker Oat package or a cardboard box. I wanted to make something that I could load 35 mm film into and have it advance like in a normal camera.

We went to the local thrift store and I bought a point and shoot for $2.82. When I got home, out came the Dremel. First I drilled four small holes in the corner of where the lens and shutter release were from the inside to the outside. This let me know on the outside of the camera where to cut. Next I took a cutoff wheel and cut out the lens and the shutter release from the outside.
