That might be a pipe dream...
I don't use mine for "typical" LF shooting so it lives happily on the Speed.
Here are a couple. First is a Kodak 2D 5x7 with a Karl Struss Pictorial lens:
The second, acquired yesterday, is a Century 41 4x5. So clean it feels new, but is 107 years old or so.

And the first photo would obviously be a/the winner in CCHarrison's competition - if it has been entered!
I had to add a better scan from the image made with the 610 APO Nikkor (see below). Even this one, was made at only 600 spi with the film just lying on the glass.
Well, after more than a year the 14x17 is finally finished. Some of it looks nice, lots of it looks like #!@*...especially the bellows. Ground glass is plexi. Sort of looks like a Chamonix, that's because I "borrowed" the design...Used the lens board sliding lock from my old Cambo. Used birch 'cause it's cheap and light. Now I need to check it for light leaks. Then hopefully I can use it to make bigger carbon prints and other alt processes.

Andrew, welcome to 14x17! Nice job! It is a different beast that is for sure. 14x17 carbon's are a challenge that is for sure. I've not gotten one that I'm happy with yet but a couple in the works. Much harder to do but I see the potential. Great job on the camera.
Thanks Jim. I'm up for the challenge!
