Installing the pinhole into the oatmeal box camera body.
Before
placing the pinhole plate inside the camera body, put electrical tape on two sides and
make a circle of epoxy glue around the pinhole, without getting any glue on the hole
itself.
Then carefully
place the pinhole plate inside the camera so that the pinhole is in the middle of the
cut-out opening. Press the pinhole plate inside the camera for a few minutes, until the
epoxy glue thickens. A tight seal around the pinhole plate prevents any light from leaking
into the camera. The other place where light likes to leak into the camera is around the
lid.
