I have used cibachrome drums for years for 8x10 films, rotated with a homemade motorized base. Works great with even development. I don’t think cibachrome drums could be floated in water, as the...

My Pressman has a top mounted rangefinder, so the size I gave earlier may not be the same as yours with the side mounted rangefinder

I just checked mine , it has 3-48x3/16 screws

The thread diameter on the shutter is 61.8mm. On mine the retaining ring is 65mm outside dimension, with a step to a larger diameter, and it is 9.5mm thick, which is thicker than your lens board, so...

Thanks all.

I ended up finding a seller on eBay that had one, and who may even be able to drill out a hole for a barrel lens I like to use in the future. The one linked in the first reply was not...

62mm would work correctly with a thin metal lens board such as cambo. 65mm would work better with a thick wooden board where the retaining nut would go through the board, being held on by the flange....

Really great images in this series, Don.

I have a spring back adapter made my fidelity, called Featherlite adapter for American films, however it is for 3-1/4x4-1/4 film. I have not seen one that is 4x5.

Mine measures 8-7/16”

Looks like uneven development, and overdevelopment, you could try a presoak for a couple of minutes, correct temperature water, and a pinch of sodium metaborate.

Eastman Kodak 2d 8x10 uses 6x6 lensboards.

Quite a few years ago, I made one using thread for sewing leather, 1mm dia. Worked well and looked original.
