Some great cameras here. Question - for those of you handheld style cameras that aren't fixed focus, where do you find the focusing helical/mounts, or do you make your own?
Schneider made focusing mounts. Mine is for the 65mm F8 Super Angulon in 00 Compur. It was offered by Sinar during the Norma era. Schneider made many different mounts for their lenses.

I finished my 8x10 pinhole camera. It can accept regular film holder as well as dry glass holders. Now, I don't need to by any 8x10 camera or lenses for it.

For small lenses (like 90mm angulon 6.8) you can source cheap helicoids on ebay.
It’s called “M58 to M58 Focusing Helicoid Ring 17 - 31mm Macro Extension Tube” and costs about 50 usd
If you screw a “58mm filter stack cap” (2 usd) to the front you can drill a copal 0 or 00 sized hole in it and mount the lens in.
To mount it on the camera I use a “58mm cokin P filter ring”. Just drill some holes for some small countersunk bolts.
Pepe! Great selection of wood figuring for the front!
I love it!
