Toyo Help Needed

I can get you the end caps and the ground glass back. Please send me a message - click on my name on the left and then on "Private Message".

Toyo backs came both with and without a Fresnel lens. If yours had a Fresnel then you need to get that too and assure it's the same thickness as the factory one. Otherwise, you'll have focus issues.

How would i go about figuring out whether or not it has a fresnel?

I can't remember for certain but I think the backs with Fresnel lenses had a recess for the Fresnel and the GG sits on top, holding the Fresnel in place.

I'm sure someone who knows for certain will chime in.

All Toyo backs, including the battleship gray ones for the Toyo Deluxe, came with fresnel lenses. They are interchangeable with the modern black Toyo backs.
