Just a thought
« on: January 28, 2009, 10:25:36 AM »
If your doing a Homebrew Camera build, You could take your 2 3/4 inch 1x1 aluminum angle piece and engrave your name and number on the side that will be against the case.  That way if it is ever stolen you'll be able to tell Law Enforcement about the identifying marks and it will be in a spot the thief will most likely not find and remove.   :twocents:

How about a guiotene  (sp?) mounted right above the camera, I'm sure the guy will be easy to spot  :P

Don't you have the nut on the inside of the case?  You can pull those off and pull the aluminium piece off, couldn't you?

Good Idea.  I am gonna put a note on the inside with something like this....Your picture was taken with another camera..put this one back and I won't call the sheriff.
It never changes, but it is always different.

I thought about doing this same thing.  Just to get the devil off their shoulder.

  With 3-D camo, no two cameras are alike. Take a picture of your camera. There is not another one like it any where.

Yes, but then there's no incentive for their guilt to kick in and put it back.  I just know if I ever catch anyone, it'll be a day they don't soon forget   >:(
