    Who is making ground glass?

    I'm updating my website and I need new contact or links for
    anyone who is making ground glass for large format or medium format cameras.

    A Chinese manufacturer on eBay makes Yanke brand ground glass for all makes and formats, plus custom work up to 8x10.
    Also, you can find new Wista and Tachihara screens.

    Carol,

    Steve Hopf does a great job. And does business like you do. Totally up front, helpful, friendly.

    Nothing against the others. I have no experience whatsoever with them.

    Its actually quite easy to make yourself. A jar of grinding grit and glass is all you need.
