Interesting concept... As far as photos showing both sides at the same time - that's easy, just use double sided tape to secure a small free-standing mirror that you place the object you're recording in front of to show both sides at once... There was a time when I did a bit of photo work to support articles I was writing and you'd be surprised what you can accomplish with a bit of ingenuity and the way you set up your shot... Nowadays, none of the rags I used to write for can even afford to buy a single article (these were all fishing oriented pieces, I never wrote for any gun publications...). times change.
