Suggestions for ULF camera parts?

**Jason_1622** · 19-Aug-2010, 09:04

I'm looking for parts and pieces to 11x14" cameras, but they don't seem to come up very often on ebay. I want to buy the sheet film holder/ground glass back from an 11x14, really almost any 11x14 camera for my current project (converting a 12x18 process camera to take 11x14 sheets). Should I just wait for the next camera show in town, or is there a better place to search online?

Jason,

One name comes to mind right away... Richard Ritter!

A second suggestion might be to contact "Attrevida" on ebay. He oftentimes has Deardorff parts that he restores
and may have the part you're looking for.

And, both of these guys are great to work with!

Best of luck.

Cheers

There is some deardorff 11x14 part on the auction site now. Was going to buy them but don't really need a project right now.

You mean on "the bay" right now? I've seen some 11x14 parts, but not a spring back and/or ground glass. Should I be looking for something else? My plan is to attach a spring back to this process camera, which currently has a vacuum back. I wouldn't mind the vacuum back, but then I'll have to double the size of this monster by building out a changing tent on the back of this thing...
