Well,
Do you know anyone, who could do one for me?
Or is there a good substitution?
I need 6x6 to 110mm.
Thanks,

Try this guy. He makes adapters. Not too expensive.

He's known as oaklandlenscom on the auction site.

He's also a nut. I ordered and paid for a 2D to Technika adapter, which he never delivered. He ignored multiple emails until finally I filed a paypal dispute--which he refused to resolve and threatened me with bad ebay feedback. I eventually got a refund from paypal, but it wasn't a good experience. Check with Richard Ritter--he's not cheap, but he's less expensive than Grimes.
Well, idea is, I will supply a Deardorff lensboard, all I need, is to make a arca hole for 110mm Arca lensboard. All nuts and bolts I can do by myself. What I cannot do is to drill the hole. I'm not a machinist. I can take care of the rest of it.

are you trying to drill a hole or cut a square?
when i drill holes in my aluminum boards i use a hole saw on a drill. no perfect or pretty but it is cheap fast and works well. i got the last "bit" at home depot for about 15$. what i do is i put the board on a piece of wood and then i screw in 8 wood screws (two per side) to the board very close to the lens board to hold it from turning while i drill it.
if you need to make a square hole then you can always get a copping saw....slow and probably not as nice but should do the trick.
My YouTube Channel has many interesting videos on Soft Focus Lenses and Wood Cameras. Check it out.

Have you spoken to SKG about the job, or not bothered because your perception is that they are expensive?
What do you think is a fair price for milling a proper depth square recess in the front of your Deardorff board? Do you have lensboard retainer hardware to keep the Arca board on the Deardorff board or do you need hardware made/supplied as well?
