Tipster: DIY Printer Using Lomo'Instant Automat

Lomography community member Lancelot introduced us to his DIY invention to make mini instants of your favorite digital prints using our very own Lomo'Instant Automat.

In the video below he details how you can make the printer using some cardboard.

By folding the cardboard into almost an enlarger kind of fashion, you can place the Lomo'Instant Automat to almost take a picture of the picture. The results pretty much look identical to the digital file.

It's a very easy and simple way to have physical instant photos of some of your favorite digital photos.

Let us know if you tried this at home!
