[QUOTE="north49guy, post: 1220772, member: 16065"]To be honest Brian I'm not sure what the total cost was as I spaced out the purchases for it over the past few months, just gradually working on it when I had some free time. The camera stand (apart from the camera) was the most expensive piece of equipment out of anything there. It is suction cupped onto glass (which i have viced to the side of the desk. As for the base, I just took a piece of scrap wood that I had laying around and covered it with the black felt using glue. The long black block to block direct light coming across the coin, as well as the other 2 blocks that hold the glass, are just pieces of wood I covered in felt. The piece of glass on the angle there is just a regular square piece of glass that I bought. It is just leaning up against an edge that I built onto the back of the board and being held on the angle by those 2 black boxes. All thats left is the felt I just put on the back wall, the light, camera, and the little remote to take the photos so I dont touch the camera and cause vibrations/blurryness in the photos. Hope that helped, and good luck to anyone wanting to build something like this. It is definitely worth it![/QUOTE]
