I use a Harman Titan 8x10 pinhole camera, primarily on Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day. I always shoot film, usually FP4, and contact print the negatives. I did shoot some color last year but have...

John, thanks for posting, these are especially interesting as I am a SF resident.

Wow, what variety? Our Gravensteins were done by early September.

Roger

Wow, you guy’s are awesome. I finally found the serial number on mine, right where Louis said it would be. So mine is #102773. Louis, I did think you were boasting, and realize that if the camera was...

The 2D location was the first place I looked and definitely no serial number there. Just had my third good hard look and I can’t find a serial number anywhere. Not a big deal, I was just hoping to...

Took another good look and that’s the conclusion I’m coming to.

Roger

Any idea where the serial number might be located? I looked all over and couldn't find one.

Roger

Roaming around with the 12x20, ah youth!!! Nice image, must have been exciting when you saw the results.

Roger

Somethings you're better off not knowing. :)

Just remember the if there’s a train run perpendicular not parallel to the tracks. :)

The first house my parent bought when I was about 4 years old had a basement that would flood during the wet season. There could be several inches of water at times. I have do have fond memories of...

Have you considered leaving the ceiling open and simply painting it?

Roger

Merg, thanks for posting, really enjoyed the book, any chance the will be hard copies available?

Roger

A couple thoughts on the concrete wall. As Merg mentioned it may not be ideal for the darkroom. Dust can be an issue which could be solved by painting the concrete. Depending on you skill level and...

Yes you can terminate your wall at the concrete foundation wall. If you are framing with wood remember that any woo in contact with concrete needs to be pressure treated so this would apply to your...

Nice work Tuco, the dinner is great and how can you go wrong with bridges and bicycles!

Roger

Right on, I knew someone had shot color whole plate.

Roger

Regular film, black and white unless you cut it down from a larger size. I'm sure someone has shot color but I can’t recall ever seeing any whole plate color images. Whole plate is one of the format...

Sal, thanks for the back story on the TMY-2, that very interesting. I have shot any of it yet and will keep the width issue in mind when I do. Hopefully it will work with my S&S holders.

Roger

Whole plate is simply a format. The nominal size is 6 1/2” x 8 1/2” and the the actual film size is 6 7/16” x 8 7/16”. As far as print size it is no different than other formats. You can contact...

McMaster-Carr would be another supplier to check. https://www.mcmaster.com/water-filters/

The Glass fire is another bad one, started in the Napa Valley a day ago and has burned over to Santa Rosa, Ca.

Well the title says potassium chloride, missed the KCN part, should look a little closer before I post.

Roger

Bostick and Sullivan and ArtCraft both list it.

I should add that both the farmhouse and ship/pilings images are outstanding.

Roger

I've done it both ways, wood screws, drill an appropriate size pilot hole or machine screws with a nut like they did for your metal board. One thing you want to do is thread the flange back on the...

Good to see your wearing a serious respirator. Be safe out there.

Roger

This store is local to me and I have bought many LF items from them over the years.

Roger

Indeed!!!

Found this on eBay.uk. I was able to order one shipped to San Francisco. https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/27024683948 Pricey when you add shipping and the exchange rate but I have been looking for a bag...

Hey, welcome back! What have you been up too for the past 8 years. Hopefully there has been some photography during that time.

Roger

Thanks Randy. Where did you post your Polaroids, they sound like fun.

Roger

Drew, I hope your friends are ok, I’ll keep them in my thoughts.

Roget

Yeah, it’s night at my house out here in the Sunset district of San Francisco, with the added bonus of an orange sky. I’ve lived in the SF Bay Area for 36 years and have never seen anything like it. ...

Couldn’t you use an extension on your Chamonix instead of a top hat board for the Fujinon C 450mm? https://www.chamonixviewcamera.com/accessories/extensionboards That would keep the lens mounted in...

It’s a banquet camera. Here’s a link to info on the Sky Scraper camera.

+1 on Daniel’s film holder sleeves. I also have them for my 7x17 holders. https://www.stonephotogear.com/. I sent him the dimensions for mine and they fit great. Daniel has an interesting business...

If your going to use the camera then I'm with Jim on this recommendation. It's a real treat to have new bellows that fit the camera perfectly, especially with the price of film and all the effort...

Looks like the original finish in nice shape, I’d leave well enough alone. Just my 2¢, which has a current value of about a penny.
