Show us your home made camera...

I like your focus mechanism. On my first camera, I used the mechanism from a set of 35mm macro bellows.

Here goes mine:







It's a double extension camera,bellows are home made.
I haven't got any recent pictures with proper ground glass and slightly readjusted back,also I made all the aluminium parts from brass now(not fitted yet,except for knobs).
If I have some free time in next few months I'm going to try and build a monorail,which should be a lot easier than field.

Excellent. I'm going to make something similar for 5x4 using the lens and focus mechanism from my 6x12 camera (link below).

A segunda sim, é forrada, mantive os movimentos originais. A primeira não tinha movimentos e era toda de madeira.
Numa está a rodenstock 75mm que já não tenho, noutra uma rodenstock 65mm.

I made a 6x17 for a friend with the front of this Linhof. It's not a good looking camera but it's versatile. It can focus and use more than one lens.

Can someone tell me more about this camera? I have the same rear standard and this would be a perfect camera to base my build off of. What kind of lens is this?
