As Foxy has yet to do his drawing this is the other kit used.

SB80-DX at full power on a tripod connected to the camera to add light and trigger the other flash guns.
Metz 45 at 1/4 power with diy softbowl on a tripod.
Lastolite reflector

The problem was keeping everything out of shot.

I know the lighting is not very subtle but the machine is 3ft long and space between it and the other one on the bench is only 18 inches. I would have had to dismantle it to move it as it weighs a ton, but I chose it as the subject for the Challenge thread as it dates from the 1930's.
