    Now here's a truly one of a kind 8x10...

    My wife had her brother, a coppersmith and sculptor, make this for me. It's an all copper 8x10 camera that sits on a Zone VI tripod in my garden. Pretty cool eh ?

    Thats very cool indeed.

    Unless, of course, it's in the sun, in which case it might be hot.

    It would be even nicer after it gets rusted.

    That'd be a camera my wife would buy ;-) I bet he could sell a bunch here if he made them.
