What I call....

     Poor Man's Light Table. I do not always have all the tools I need but am quick to find a suitable alternative. I have been meaning to get myself a light table since I use it alot when I am trying to concept a project. My first attempt at creating my own light table was simple. I taped the pieces of paper on windows. Even though this tended to be an uncomfortable position, for long periods of time, it worked. Of course it only worked when it was daylight or bright outside. I recently had to work on a piece into the evening hours. So I upgraded my light table by placing a small light outside that I pointed at the window. Worked great.
