Hi Peter. Balsa USA.
Oh, man! I forgot to update this way back when.
I did go to Balsa USA and was allowed to go in their back room and pick through the sizes they had. I got some quite flat pieces that I think will work very well to make my holders.
Unfortunately, this has been put on back burner for a while as I do tons of other things; especially things that actually produce income instead of spend it! It's weighing on my mind, since I now have all I need to make the camera: wood, metal, bellows, tools, shutter, lenses. But I know that, once I build it, I'll want to spend both time and money on film, photography, and -- the biggest commitment -- setting up a darkroom space large enough for 14x17. My upstairs bathroom will work, but it will be tight, and take a lot of effort.
Uh-Oh I clicked on that link
They sell $2000 airplane kits 1/3rd scale with 10 ft wingspan!
I made a lot of tiny ones 60 years ago and crashed every one!
Great source, thanks for posting the link

I'll do that, too, from now on. They were both friendly an generous.
