A bit of an update. I just pulled the trigger on the Gowland + 90 Grandagon deal I asked about a few weeks ago, and wanted to have a lensboard made for my one other lens. So if anyone has the specs for the lbs and a copal 0 hole, I'd be grateful. The camera is on its way, and the deal included some filmholders, a roll film 6x7 back, dev tanks and film too. I just hope the lens cleans up nicely. LF here I come !!

why not just order one from Gowland - I think they are only $15 - $25 + drilling

Buy a new lensboard from Peter himself; it will cost $30.

Standard 4x5 Gowlands use metal 4x4" lens board with sharp corners, 1/8" thick, and 2 notches that are 1/16" thick for the screws. Peter sells blank ones for $15 and $15 to drill a hole.
