Hey guys,

I'm sorry in advance for what is surely a nubile question. I have tried and tried, but try as I may, I can't seem to find a decent place to obtain a lensboard for my calumet woodfield 4x5. It takes a square board which measures roughly 3.5 x 3.5 inches (maybe a millimeter more?). Seeing as Calumet is out of business, I was wondering if you fine folks might have some advice for me. I'm in the East SF Bay (Hayward) and if there's any woodworking shop local to here which would cut a custom board, I'm open to that as well.

Thanks in advance, and cheers. :D

The Calumet Wood Field uses Linhof Technika boards. The board isn't actually square. The bottom corners are clipped. They are easy to find.

No. The Calumet Woodfield uses a custom size wooden board (sorry OP, I included all of mine when I sold my camera). The Woodfield XM uses a Tachihara board. This was my Woodfield with its board visible.
