Ok … read the LSMAIPL book what Patrick indicated above is one thing … you HAVE to recreate the scenario and sometimes (by own experience) try to discovered “what’s missing” to not look like the book says.
With Jay P.’s videos … now sweat!
Thanks extended, OF COURSE, to our pals from FStoppers as well!
BTW Patrick … any idea when you guys will be back in Chicago .. I still owe you some beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers. ;)

I shot a bottle a while ago in a similar fashion, sort of.

This is exactly why I haunt fstoppers.com :) I’m going to try to duplicate the results, can’t wait to give it a go!

BTW, translations for non Americans:

“One-by” is a length of timber one-inch by x-inches, in this case 1-inch by 2-inches. (Yes, I know, they still use inches…. leave them alone, it’s OK)

“Glycerine in a spritzer bottle” is Glycerol (not glycol) in a spray bottle. 

“Spritzer” (verb) means “Spray”

“Earthquake putty” roughly the same as BluTac (like plasticine, but stronger and more tacky)

[Serious footnote - this was not to offend Americans - you really do have quite a different language from a lot of other English speaking countries]
