Thank you for making this information available to the world and of course to me.
I am stuck on making the rear standard.
In particular how to be sure the ground glass plane and the film plane are the same.
Am I correct to say they "must" be the same?
Not even one mm off.
Can you offer any help?
I have the lens mounted to the front standard and bellows.
Just need the rear standard built.
Thank you
