with 4 light bulps as a very strong video light.<br>
With a large umbrella it's a soft and and without a hard video light.<br>
<br>
When you want photo and video, this modification allows to place a flash on the same umbrella.<br>
The hot show is tapared to allow for easy insertion of the flash.<br>

I provided a technical drawing with the dimentions and spacing used, in

Keep the 2 screws.<br>

The print you see was aborted after that damn Thing-o-Matic failed after
25 of 60 minutes. (The usual extruder-jamming when the PLA gets too hot
due to an obvious design fault of the hot end.)
