After sleeping on it

Not buying and trying the jack

My cart second level will solve the problem

My design for 14X36" camera is settled with all materials to proceed

For many years I just bought scenic postcards and sent them to family and friends

If I had a camera and usually did not

I shot the people I was with, not on cliffs

I knew postcards were...

Danger

I know other members are DIY a scissors jack

Just found my old enemy. AKA Transmission Jack

But this might be a good purchase for me

It lifts 450 lbs 17" with a screw

I need to think...

I made a 'head steady' for myself

No sitters on my horizon

Love it

I will respond

maybe a month...

Some time ago, Feds claimed they could X_ray entire trucks moving slowly

Thank you for your input!

I am now making stage 2, which is storage and a second level camera perch

I am adding 17" sides with a strong top

No front or back, a tunnel

Cameras can be on...

The Beseler 45V-XL is also a very good chassis

I have mine wall mounted with 8X10 conversion

There are Beseler 45V-XL 8X10 conversion kits, however I have DIY made by a very famous artist

I...

I admire

William Mortensen, WeeGee, Karsh

for different reasons they all made 'ART'

WeeGee did not retouch as there was no time

Mortensen often retouched only the print as he cared for...

IF you have your 4X5 Speed set for YOU

You too can try to shoot as good as WeeGee

No fucus, usually preset 10 feet, always a flashbulb day or night

Use the wire finder, shoot faster than...

The DeVere 405 is the best chassis ever made

You can wall mount or bench by removing the base and using short knobs

Be careful with the springs, they can bite

A common problem is notchy...

Very good!

I could but they are too expensive to hack and NOT work very long

The 1/2-13 SS thread allows very accurate leveling with wing nuts

and camera tilt

It is too low for easy GG usage, so I will...

Ditto

Great!

I have 4 PC Buff Einstein, I really prefer strobe and they dial way down. They can run on AC from the wall, my tiny quiet Honda Generator and batteries

I have been buying a few Small Rig and...

Great balls of fire

I hope he used lightning flash bulbs

I wanna see those shots

Every poison, pollution, whatever that we humans have made

Is still made on this planet

That may change


Even WWIII will be man/woman made

and I fully believe our planet will shake that...

Before CAF moved to GA, I used to camp as Winter Texan in the 70's right next to their airport/hangers and restoration Warbirds. Interesting projects.

Before our Plague I had planned to fly in...

I think very few use/like Rodinol

Except me

I use it for nearly everything and have for at least 9 years

Thanks for posting!

We, meaning humans are part of nature, all LIFE fouls...

or do we we

Earth will live long after we ALL are dust

The tectonic plates will bury

and it will start again

Any thought capture is communication, maybe one to some or a book, map, stele

Use your toe, draw a line in sand, is it property, art, communication

almost all critters leave a 'mark' even in...

I like cash face to to face on delivery

Like!

Both

I admire good gas mileage and a safe driver

Glad you are back home safe and sound

That is some serious driving and image making

Good for you!

Landing gear, moved camera forward to make room for the drop in basket

Big knobs on top for safety

Bottom feet have for holes Earth screws, aka 8" lag screws

I would like to find unlocking...

Excellent!

You are new here

I also use DIGI, but vastly prefer the old ways

I don't need to spot my wet prints

Like shot 2!

I need a Detective camera

one day

I used to scan LF negs and PS remove all dust

insane waste of my time

I changed

At one time I tried the old pencil retouching machines

I have 2

Yes I read that but there are more recent posts

nonetheless, there is still good data to glean

too bad they quit too soon

as I think pinhole is back

one post convinced me to make my film...

Very good!

I was never a user

Yet now I need it

On APUG found a link to archive F295 and posts as recent as 2021

What is going on?

i miss Dunkin Donuts S counter, red seats, 24 hours

and a donut with a handle

i did Dunk


often

Very nice work!

Did you make the traditional tripods also?

I have a few of them, soon to be used on NOS 45 Pinhole boxes

Some Alt Printers and some 'important' ones now use DIGI Negs

BUT some should study a certain Canadian that works wonders and has posted his all film process more than once

He makes it look...

Tomorrow

2 clamps I think will help make the big box

JORGENSEN 8048 Cabinet Master 48 Inch 90 Degree Parallel Steel Bar Clamp X 2

Since my vision is so bad, I quit driving for the safety of others

I will now make images in line with MY poor vision

no worries, hang only on my walls

I shot only Pentax no meter, never a flash for 50 years

I wanted sharp

This last 10 years, LFPF has changed my eye
