With an X-ACTO you can convert that old vintage film camera into something artsy. Carefully slice a section out of the bellows to create a holder for business cards, pens, pencils, and even a mobile phone. (Lightly brushing the cut edges with “Liquid Electrical Tape” will keep the bellows material from fraying.)

Caution :: Be careful when using working with sharp cutting utensils. Also, provide adequate ventilation.
