I'm not sure I've given the right idea as to what I want to try. I don't want to aim the lights forward or backwards, I want them aimed towards the center. I don't need 100% light intensity at the left and right walls, but I do in the center.
So, if a person were to use these reflectors that are mounted perpendicular, any rotation of the reflector to the center, would just be a rotation
around the bulb. The bulb itself isn't tilting -- just rotating.
So a person ends up with two reflectors, with the outside edges being lower, and the inside edges being raised.
What I was hoping to accomplish with this (in addition to a "focal point at the centre"), is also a bit of angular light, so that some larger pieces can be side-lit, in addition to top-lit.
I have no idea if this is making any sense. Unfortunately, it seems to me I'll never know the answer until I try this myself ... which means plunking down $150 (2 x $75 for optimal reflectors at J&L) on an idea that I'm not 100% certain that will work in the first place. I seem to spend far too much money on experiments that the end result is unused equipment lying around, a lot of cash spent, and one very irate spouse. It doesn't seem to matter if I promise to "end up eventually using this or that" ...
