Wow amazing work and camera, what sensitive surface do you plan to use with it?
Collodion? Photo paper? Homemade gelatin silver glass plate?

Are you sure you can get it out of the room once it is complete?
That is quite a project - looks very good.
Amazing mammoth camera. Well done. I would imagine it Would be quite tough to handle this alone even for loading the film holder.

Can you "rig" together a plate holder from glued up bits of old Lisco holders? I am thinking, maybe only one sided with a backing piece toehold it all together and ensure rigidity and flatness.

There are only three types of mounting flanges; too big, too small and wrong thread!
Wow!! ULF indeed !! Looks clean and sturdy. I like it.
Can you extend the bellows out to 1:1 lifesize magnification?
As a side note, I have a hard time seeing the 48”x48” size, in relationship to your table and chairs. Is that 48” square or measured diagonally?
Wow, that reminds me of a graphic arts copy camera, minus the vacuum back. I'm sure it weighs less, and the one I'm most familiar is built into a darkroom on the film holder side. I've been told I can have it for free if I can move it without destroying the building. I'm not sure I'm up to that project yet. I need to go back and visit the print shop though. They still have a lot of the supplies and I could do some still life work with it at huge sizes.
