The thickness of the holder isn't so critical Randy, the important thing is that the holder holds the film on the same plane are the aerial image thats projected on te inside of the ground glass before you inserted the film holder---thats what you're focusing on. The "center" is where the septum dwells and the measurement you want is the distance between the septum + the thickness of the film and the face of the light trap where the back on your camera rests, which should equal the distance between the inside focus plane) of your camera's back and the face of the light trap. Save your self some work and use your holders first. If a film holder yields chronically out of focus negatives, then get out the measuring stick
