<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1162626, member: 19463"]I have used hot melt glue to mount the dowel rods I use as a prop but never thought of using the glue itself. I flop back and forth regarding the best shade of an edge reflector/bowl. Some coins seem fake looking with too much reflection so a middle gray works better but white or even silver has struck me at other times according to the coin and directionality of the main light. Every photo is a new experience and every day brings a new opinion to my fickle nature. We each have our favorites.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
