    Grafmatic Light Trap Loosened - advice needed

    Greetings to all Grafmatics Holders owners - I would appreciate your help.
    Just received my first Grafmatic and the lighttrap which is normally located (glued) under the sign "4x5 Grafmatic USA etc.." was detached. I believe I can fix that back with a piece of double sided tape, but my question is, which way? As you may know, lightrap is formed by a piece of felt squuezed between the thin sheet of metal and could be placed both ways (metal edge towards the darkslide handle or upside down).
    If any of you who are using Grafmatics could inspect position of the lighttrap (with septums removed) and let me know. Thanx ivan
