Just curious... Thank-you!

She always is. Didn't smile for the first 15.5 years.
I think it's 35" bellows or so. Not a ton, but it will have to do.

I looked these up. Very reasonable. I like the self casing 20X24.

What's the lens in picture Garret? I have a 14" American radial drive petzval and it looks just like yours.

I know its a kludge but what about getting an adapter board? Assuming most of your lenses are mounted on 9" boards and those lenses don't protrude back through the board, or if they do, they don't measure more that 8.5" wide then you could get a "up converter" to go from an 8.5" board to a 9" board. I'm sure that SK Grimes could make one for you for a price. Probably around $250 is my guess. Would save a lot of hassle.
I have thought about making some alterations so I can shoot my lenses on 9" boards (too many too count). But I'd do the work myself. Good idea, I was thinking of opening up the camera 1/4" on each side, but making a lensboard jig, like an Ilexpo shutter, should work.

Congratulations, Garrett. It's a beauty!
