Thanx for the input...I hope I have this clear in my mind :-) ......Tamron 17mm 
lens has no filter thread - outer diam of lens is 70mm. I think I will look out 
for a piece of grey/black nylon or other engineering plastic and turn a boss to 
slip over outside of lens. With a bit of luck I can fit a "P" Cokin adapter to 
the outside of this..  (I have just found out that Cokin adapters are made up 
to 82mm) This should allow me to fit the Cokin P holder. Add some kind of 
thumbscrew and I am in business!
  I KNOW I have a piece of large diameter nylon Somewhere in my school workshop 
stored using the "just in case" principle. All I have to do is find it....I am 
NOT the most organized person at the moment...far too much going on..    :-0
