Hi All,
I managed to break the ground glass on my 14x14 camera. Can anyone recommend a supplier for a custom-made replacement?
Thanks
Rob

Here's one source.

I just built a 5 x 12 camera and I sourced my ground glass on ebay. I found a vendor who was making 5x7 and asked if they could do 5 x 12 - no problem.
I'm very pleased with the 8"x10" gg I recently got from Steve Hopf

Hopf made a beautiful 5x7 for my Dorf
What size GG do you need? Place a Want to Buy in the appropriate sub-forum and I think you will be happy.
Make your own, I just one for my 16x20 and it was remarkably easy and the screen is bright. Total cost was maybe 20$ for glass and grinding compound. And an hour or so of elbow grease.
I followed Ian's directions https://www.lomography.com/magazine/...n-focus-screen

even a little one for an old Rolleicord that was missing a ground glass...

I won't buy another, too much fun making them. I watch a movie while grinding and soon it is done.
I buy grit here. Telescope DIY supplies. http://www.willbell.com/atmsupplies/atm_supplies.htm
