Just restarted shooting LF (and MF and 35mm) film after a career induced hiatus and am building back “touch” skills, e.g., handling an 8x10 camera quickly and efficiently. It is a lot of fun and...
Bryan - excellent plate and presentation.
Thank you for sharing your plate mounting ideas. Your ideas floated some new ideas for me... Tried gluing neodymium magnets to the plexiglas, using...
1. Didn’t start with a specific objective or expectation, just a gut feeling that newer technology should have proliferated enough to create lower cost alternatives for simple parts, like WHSs.
...
Close. There are nuances that I haven’t communicated well. First, I am willing to pay. And, I prefer to pay get a set of permanent stops made than spend the time to make a set of temporary stops. ...
About 5 or 6 dial caliper measurements should provide the necessary input data to generate a CAD file that can be laser cut. My intent is to pursue two or three alternatives and a couple folks have...
The original question was not about how to cut holes in thin, soft material to make temporary stops. The intent was to findout if and how we can access technology services to go straight to...
One would tend to think that laser cutters or CNC Routers who can cut 1 or 2mm thick metal (aluminum or steel) should be able to readily do the work. Particularly for my lens, which has a barrel...
This is the kind of service that I was hoping someone else had already tried, because I don't want to buy my own "ring laser gyroscopically stabilized plasma cutter"!
Have you used their laser...
Congratulations! Look forward to you posting all your killer image for us to ogle.
Hmmm... maybe I don't have the right tool that makes it easy to cut a nice circle. What are you using for a circle cutter that can cut through card stock?
With all the laser cutter, CNC mill, and 3D printing technology available now, is there a new “Easy Button” way to get a set of Waterhouse stops made even easier and cheaper?
Have that funny...
Recently acquired a Xenar 36cm f/4.5 in barrel. The filter thread size is 102mm with 1 mm thread pitch. Started looking for a 102 to 105 step-up ring so that I could use it with standard size...
Thanks for the clarification. There are at least three different methods to make the conversion. Did you enlarge the opening in the front plate?
Next question... what are you hauling your KMV around in? Have you found a good backpack or case to haul? In my case, it would be nice to find something that would haul the camera and 5x7 back.
It is just an adapter board - awesome, thanks for the information!
Mark - can you tell us any more about your KVM modification to accept 6x6 boards? I have a lot of vintage glass on 6x6 boards that I’d like to be able to directly hang on the front of a recently...
I like this point.[/QUOTE]
Glad to hear someone thinks wet plates with pour imperfections, incorrect exposure, and poor development are not cool and an aesthetic!
When learning to pour plates I...
Great. How do you get the old tracks out?
Purchased a new rail set my camera and the geared focus tracks are deeper than the old tracks. So, the gears on the front and rear standards don't engage. Anyone know how to adjust this?
Thanks,...
It's a negative scan (Nikon 9000).
The technical things that work in this photo are 1) T-MAX 400 developed in XTOL produces a broad midtone range with tonal separation and 2) the Xenotar lens is a...
Thanks. And, no filter.

After searching old threads and finding that some previous sources are not longer making bellows. I have two questions:
1. Has anyone here tried the bellows offered by eBay seller...
Love this camera, but I think that hung one too many heavy lens off the front and the rail broke.
What are the options to repair or replace it? Have all, or at least most, of the wood that...

Nice work! Thanks for sharing.
Is there a through source of information, e.g., a PDF book, on the BTZS available on the internet?
