I've seen Pete's Miller tripod with his 8x20, amazing setup.
Jim's right.... but get both for your machine, it doesn't have to be three jaw or four..... try to find a good used lathe with everything your likely to need, like tool rests, etc,etc. or it will...

Thanks, Steven.... Do you use soft silver solder or low lead? Bill

I've used Surplus Shed several times, it's the the chunks of hard resin that must be picked through for clear pieces then liquified after being ground in a mortar..... Depending on what grade they...
Kanga, If your lucky enough to have tanks, use them, it's the safest method to avoid scratches. Sergi is right all the information is in this thread.... good luck.
I took Sandy's advise on the Gaylord Book Binding tape. Did six 5x7 holders last night. The tape is easy working, doesn't over stretch and cuts cleanly. I bought a 2" roll so I can use the straight...
D-Tach, The shore line #66, is wonderful with the Cooke and just a whisper of movement in the skirt.
Jim, The format looks like a natural for you... fine work.
Stone, Helpful? Compassionate? Who was just looking for an 11x14 back on-the-cheap? Your photographically gifted and intelligent, try to be helpful too.... the smily face doesn't always make it funny.
Andreois, Echo those words for me too... Beautiful...exquisite....wonderful....
This is a question that should be under "Lenses, etc" It isn't something your listing, if you don't yet have a price.... No one should be inviting you to list it "elsewhere" before you have made up...
It's interesting that no one has mentioned 5x7. Cameras cost roughly the same as 4x5, unless buying high end gear, or new. My omega E 5x7 enlarger cost me $300. with ALL the bells and whistles, both...
Works wonders on slides too...
A light coat of min-wax or butchers wax and buff.... along both sides and edges.

You could read the opening page of this site.... it's helpful.... "How to get started in large format photography"..... Sorry, don't know the model, but wish I had one.... Good luck and welcome.
raul, Shoot a test roll and try it. I recommend making D-23, since it's the simplest dev to make with metol i know of, to cut any chance of error, if mixing chemicals for the first time. Get a copy...
gchu, +1 .. What f stop and how much softening on that Universal Heliar?
Billy Ikkang, Your "Simple Portrait" of Yuan Yi is what we all strive to achieve ... Simple but stunning...
When you re-cement the lenses, use canadian balsam.... the vast majority of lenses made between 1850 and1950 are still fine and not separating. Easy to use easy to reverse, organic and as a result...
Sorry, that's Second Edition of Alternative Photographic Process...
You will also find information in Alt Photo Process by Chris James. Chapter 22 written by Mark Osterman for collodion, calotype and dryplate.
D23 is fine... you can't get more basic (your word) and flexible a developer AND it's what you are use to using.
You can "try" LensN2shutter or S.K.Grimes for information. A Galli shutter fits ALL barrel lenses if you want to do it yourself.
........black and white.
Greg, +1 ...... "the winner"
Before you say "you can't", shoot a few sheets of an attractive face and post them here.... I'll bet you get offers.... If you can see through it, you can shoot through it .... You might make an...

If you bought it for a project, you already know what it's worth.... to make a short story even shorter, scam elsewhere.
Yellow poplar ...best for stain and paint, strong (chair wood) accepts nails well , light weight and dimentionally stable.
Polyglot, Wonderful stuff, love the ovens... can feel the hours and days of heat and sweat and hard work....
J, Terrific, Thankx. Bill
His style seems to favor the image over technical excellence, not that his technique was wanting, just curious about how his equipment contributed to his style.
Been struggling with the same issue... I think you have the answer that will help everyone.... If a few of us (well, perhaps more than a few..) do the same thing and list our replaced older holders...
Ritchie, Maybe this is closer to what your looking for..... Iridescent Light, The Art Of Stand Development By Michael Axel, available from Blurb. This is the best book I've seen (and own) on stand...
