<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 2720511, member: 15199&quot;]Almost all of the stereozooms have a plate of glass or painter metal , light on one side and dark on the other. In the metal one it is easy to drill and tap a small screw hole and add a proper threaded knurled from the specialty connector boxes at a good hardware store. then you just gently rotate the plate by using the projecting screw.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Also, at Walmart paint supplies today, I noticed that KILZ brand of colors had nice 8x10 sheet solid color paint &#039;chip&#039; with peelable sticky on the back. So if you want different color background for your coins, gems, insects, just stick a sheet on your stage, and trim with a blade leaving a tab to aid removing. It is reusable, so stick it back on the backing until needed later. I took a few greys white and colors so white balance can be easier.&nbsp; I am planning to repaint some metal storage, so I will eventual buy some paint of one color, once I am ready.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you are wanting to attach cameras to a scope through the eyepiece, look in Astronomy or Sky and Telescope for the firms that manufacture holders. Even cell phone camera can be attached at the proper distance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
