    Great job, Randy!

    ...looking forward to seeing how you incorporate those oar locks into adjustable legs. Nice job though...looks very sturdy!

    As I have 'The Howitzer' ready for battle on wagon wheels. No mule sadly

    My summer campaign will be testing ULF Pinhole and Wollaston Meniscus lenses, the 500 and 790mm made by

    http://www.re-inventedphotoequip.com/Formats.html

    The Howitzer can use 4/5, 5/7, 8/10, 11/14, 14/17" film and plate

    Work on the 14X36" Box will continue for Winter War and 2023 Spring opportunity

    Re: ULF DIY Camera Cart

    I am well aware of dead animal carry, various carts and have them

    The Howitzer is designed as low angle 'Tripod' with wheels that this old man can move very local to my DR

    Thanks for your suggestions

    Leg levelers are next

    I can also remove The Howitzer quickly and use cart for other gear

    Well, duh, it IS your handle. My only request is that you use it wisely, and that no photons are harmed in your pursuits.

    Weighed Tin Cannon just now

    I must be feeling better!

    The rig as shown is 143 lbs

    and even more important

    I inadvertently made the cart the exact size to mount my huge Deardorff 11X14 with 75" of extension, it weighs more...

    Now that's a Cannon!

    That's excellent, Randy!
    It would be fun to mount a 35mm body on the back end.
