Howdy folks:

I have a Korona 11x14 that has a back that is very wiggly toward and way from the lens. The standard seems small in the bed grooves. My plan is to silver solder some brass strip to the bottom of the standard brackets that ride in the grooves of the bed rails to make them thicker and therefore less sloppy. I do not understand why they are so loose. There is absolutely no reason that I can see why the grooves were made so wide. Also, has anyone repaired the gear sectors for the back tilt on these cameras? I can make new ones, but I don't wanna. Perhaps I will buy a broken 8x10 and swap them out. Anybody ever fix these?

Thanks a bunch.
