Inspired by the 'Show us your rig' sticky, I decided to have a go at making a macro set-up myself.
I proceeded to take my old 70-300 AF Nikkor and tape to the front of it the 24-80 Nikkor with self-amalgamating tape. It works remarkably well for five minutes worth of building. I would guess it gives anywhere between 1:1 to maybe 6:1.
All of these were handheld at about 1/60 with the on-camera flash - which somehow worked miraculously well considering the 20cm of glass stuck on the front!

Remote power button:

I'm heading into my yard with my experiMENTAL sigma 150mm and all my extension tubes to hunt for the spider I let go yesterday. Keep on trying those set-ups and the bathroom spider is very well taken
