>>3236464Ah, so for non-visual inspo I read interviews with photographers. Alec Soth did an awesome AMA on Reddit a fee years ago that I skim through occasionally. Lots of gems in there.
I also love the following link immensely. Works as a good starting point to then find interviews with the photographers who tickle your fancy.

It wouldn't be too difficult to dismantle and clean yourself. It better be cheap though. Like $20 max.
