My method wasn't too scientific. I don't have a stereo camera and I
knew that using two different cameras would be next to impossible, so
I was going to have to take two photos with the same camera. I
figured (correctly as it turns out) that the lens should be about eye-
width apart for the two shots. I had no bracket or gauge to use, and
I was handholding the camera, so what to do? Well, I figured that my
eyes aren't gonna change their spacing so if I held my head very still
and took one photo looking through the viewfinder with the left eye
and (without moving) shot the other while looking through the
viewfinder with my right eye it might work.
Here's one I just made a few minutes ago while cooking tonight's
steaks.

They are remarkably good given the crudeness of your technique (I mean that
as a compliment :-). Well done. I'll have to have a go.

Very nice indeed.
I have frequently used the "take-one-shot; rock-to-the-left; take-the-next"
technique (the 3D cognoscente have a name for that technique, which I
forget), but it never ocurred to me to *literally* use each eye alternately.
Thanks for the idea.
Did you see my super-sophisticated setup:

I built this 'cause I wanted (still do) to capture moving subjects. Works a
treat!
I used to use (pre-digital) two identical AE-1's, but, boy, was that bulky!
This little Nikon setup is most satisfactory - though a little too widely
spaced for close shots.

These hurt my old eyes a bit.
Distant shots work better. Fun, 'though!

This one is not so good I can only get a narrow strip down the centre.
Think you may have shifted you eyes and not the camera.

Worked perfectly for me.
everything was clear as a bell.

Here's another one I just made that is best viewed using the crosseyed-
eyes technique. It also helps if you are an arm's length away from the
monitor.
