    Anything bigger than 8x10 is ULF IMO. However the So Cal get together are also welcome all the LF's photogapher, friends and family and especially ...The Collectors

    Well, I just checked again and I started the build design sketches on the 25th of August. Not bad to build a 2024 in 2 1/2 months. If I did not laminate the 80/20 it could have been done a lot sooner. I'll never be a factory. Hand built and hand polished wood one at a time.

    I want to thank Hugo and Hass at Chamonix for the lead screw for focusing. It is smooth!

    Nice Jim!
    Are you concerned about changing temps with wood stuck to aluminum?
    ie wood expanding/contracting at different rates than metal.

    Sure. They aren't cheap by any means.

    That's right! Vinny I'll see how it does when I go to the redwoods on the 16th through the 25th. If the stuff pops off at least I'll have kindling wood for the fire!

    The lamination's are solid so we shall see when I get it out in the field. BTW, it is a little heavier than first measured. 30 LBS. Oh well!!
