A couple of months ago, I had rec'd a Zone VI 4X5 from an eBay purchase. When I ordered and received a lens board for it, I found out that my unit was a Tachihara-sourced Zone VI that uses a Linhof board. The fellow was very pleasant about having me send the board back and he was going to replace it with 2 boards in #0 and #1 as he said they were much simpler to make, etc. He is rather disorganized and failed to get this straight before leaving for a foreign trip and I'm now cooling my heels, waiting for him to return and complete the exchange.

I have some suitable thin plywood that appears to be the proper thickness. I can't locate any precise info regarding the off-set hole location for these. Does anyone know of a source of a template or the actual specs for these? I haven't been able to find it on the net on my own.

The hole doesn't have to be offset. Some come that way to give you additional fall for cameras that don't have much. I pull all of mine in the center.
