I got two Pringles tubes, some rubber bands and some PVA glue. I'm gonna have a go at making my own L lenses. Anyone got any ideas about what I can use for glass?

You could try 10 Nikon Lenes and get half an "L"

So what do ya think of this DIY project? I needed a very small snoot for a beam strobe effect. The larger strobes and snoots were not doing the job. So… how about a toilet paper roll and a paper drinking cup? Take a look! Total cost: $0.35
