If you still need it, I have a the product in stock and would be happy to post you a picture? (Not in the office right now though or I'd save this message and just post it).

Do you still need it?

Hi there,

Yea. Sorry for not replying to the PM. I was kind of in the middle of something and couldn't really take a break.

But I didn't forget you! Last night I did attempt to take photos of the tarantula.

The problem is that my camera loses focus when I get close enough to see the details in how the parts fit together. The bottom line was the photos were blurry.

I need to figure out how to get the camera to take clear close up photos.

u can make a photo without zoom ?:P i can zoom in on the picture;)

just need the dimensions etc

and need to know why my own made switch sometimes falls out is it because of the size or is there some other thing?

Never thought of that lol! Ok, tonight I'll take a couple of high resolution photos and see if they're any use to you.
