I'm making a Deardorff-to-Technika adapter board right now, and just cut the joints this morning. I think this is my favorite part: half-laps in 3/8" mahogany, that fit perfectly. Very satisfying.  Read about it here. |

Well, considering Groucho Marx would be nearly 110 years old if he were still alive, then yeah, you could say this was old. I certainly wasn't trying to claim it was my own. Just the [wood], which I substituted for "club", which could also be made out of wood, now that I think about it. |

Well, I know there's very limited large format usage here, but I'm happy with how the 'Dorff-to-Tech adapter board is coming, so I'm sharing:  Detailed on my blog. |

Scott, I'm happy you're sharing -- I'm eager to see your progress. I admire craftsmanship in any field, and am mighty jealous of anyone with the skills to make such beautiful objects.

Thanks guys. I think, after finishing this order, I'm going to stick to rehabbing wooden cameras for a while - the market on lensboards and such NOT made from plywood is frustrating at best right now. And, I've got another clock in the planning stages...  |
