What is the market for unique LF gear? When I die i do not want to leave my wife with decades accumulations of cameras, many of which are unique, some hand-built. Such would make her life too complex.
I am not concerned with established brands of which among us we have many, but in particular cameras built to new configurations or combinations of parts put together in a novel manner which can be called outliers.
You can only find by putting them on sale, I guess.
You built what the market wouldn't provide. The first thing that comes to mind is junk.
Calling your treasures junk is unfair. Why don't you stop torturing yourself about how best they can be disposed of them after you die and sell them off now. Offer complete JacBrand cameras on eBay, priced at par with the lenses on them. If they don't sell, offer the lenses.
Another solution would be not to die, I guess.
Short of immortality, the best I can think of is to leave a list of titles, descriptions and photos for auctions.

I understand, but are you sure your wife will survive you??Originally Posted by Jac@stafford.net
I have a close friend that does Estate Sales, he goes in, does some research, prices the crap and reduces prices once a day until it's all gone.
He takes a cut and gives the survivors a check.
He is specified in my will.
I will not share him with others, he is now Chicago based formerly of Seattle, and much younger than I.
Only motorcycles are excluded, those go to the guy I taught to ride 45 years ago.
The stepdaughter or her heirs get cash.

Heck, you too have a wife??
No, both are deceased. God bless their souls.
