Has anyone had first hand experience with fabricating a reflex back for a whole plate or 8x10 camera? I once read a one page article in VIEWCAMERA magazine about the fabrication of a reflex back for an 11x14, but I can't seem to find that issue. I have images of a Sinar 8x10 reflex back and a TOYO 8x10 reflex back, but the details of their constructions are not shown. I think ideally adapting the viewing lens part of a Sinar Binocular finder to a prefabricated trapezoidal shaped "box" containing a trapezoidal shaped front surface mirror inside would be the way to go. Construction of a 11x14 reflex back not out of the question, if I only had a construction plan to work off of....
Comments most welcome. Construction details are more than welcome...
