- inserting a hollow, cylindrical, solid bottomed closed ended member, having at least one circumferential groove formed in the outside wall thereof and at least one fluid-tight inflatable member mounted within said at least one groove or mounted covering the opening of the groove and communicating a hollow rod with said inflatable member, within a lower portion of a hollow, bottomless cylindrical body having a uniform inner diameter surface portion;
- feeding a fluid through said hollow rod to inflate said inflatable member so as to contact said uniform inner diameter surface portion of said bottomless cylindrical body;
- immersing said bottomless cylindrical body in a liquid containing a photosensitive material so as to coat an outside surface of said cylindrical body, to confine an ambient gas beneath said solid bottomed closed ended member and to prevent said liquid containing a photosensitive material from entering into the inner space of said cylindrical body except a lowermost portion thereof; and
