I had to make a new leathering for my Mamiya-6 and Ica Lloyd-Cupido 560. To make stamps for the logos and trim lines 3D printing is very good. I vectorized the logos from images available to me of...
Additions using 3D printing for my Bronica SQ-Ai:
Shaft finder, battery holder and wind-up knob.
However, the battery holder still needs metal strips to ensure contact.
The shaft finder works...
wow, like a photo from the 19th century :-)

Very fine !
I did some experiments to renew the coating. You can dissolve the coating well with alcohol. However, it becomes brittle again after it dries. This is due to the binder, which has lost its...
Great pictures Simongg. You have a very fine feeling for composition and flow of lines. The stillness in the images in contrast with the dynamics of the composition build an interesting tension. This...
I can only agree with that.
But I live in Switzerland and the Kodak Medalist is an exotic for me. Because I'm tired of the "digital click and everything is done", I enjoy the individuality of old...

I have restored some wooden shutters from Thorton Piccard. I was wondering if it is possible to make one with 3D printing. It works, but you have to be able to make a curtain yourself and also make a...
I have some housings from Mamiya Profesional, but without the handle. So I tried to make the handle with 3D printing. I found a template at thinkinverse.com. I designed the screw and the shaft to the...
