Thats a good idea and worth a try. I could just break down and design one but frankly I would have to go through at least 3 or 4 rebuilds before I got one I could use. Ideally I think I would like something fairly light weight, more along the lines of a field camera. Being portable would be the key. Since I have a D2 4x5 would probably be as big as I would want the film to be. I did a google search and was surprised a really how few choices other than the bender kits were out there. ----- Original Message ----- From: afterswift@xxxxxxx To: pure-silver@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, December 01, 2006 11:53 AM Subject: [pure-silver] Re: Large camera plans You might be able to get plans from Eastman House Museum in Rochester.

Ive seen the Bender plans, and I am a fair woodworker. Yet I would be interested to know if there are other common plans out there, and if you have built one was it used successfully. ============================================================================================================= To unsubscribe from this list, go to www.freelists.org and logon to your account (the same e-mail address and password you set-up when you subscribed,) and unsubscribe from there. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the new AOL.
