I again find myself in the middle of building another pinhole
camera. This time the "box," which is already constructed, is a
piece of raku fired ceramics. The back/film holder piece will be
constructed from wood. Where the wooden part connects to the
ceramic part I need to use some sort of adhesive for the
attachment and also some sort of light tight sealent around the
borders of the ceramic part and the wooden part (this would be
on the inside of the "box.") In my first camera I used PVA and
india ink, however that one was all wood and was easily
accessible from the rear. This one will probably require using

questions? What adhesive will attach the two pieces forever.
What caulking/light stopping substance should I use to seal the

so re-engineering will likely not be an option. Oh, and this
camera promises to be every b
