I have some old view cameras that are missing some metal parts, like corner braces. Most of the remaining parts have some surface corrosion. I will probably need to fabricate the replacements. It looks like most of the parts were made from brass and then nickel plated or chromed; is that correct?
Can old parts be re-plated?
Has anyone had parts plated? If so, where?
I was thinking about contacting some of the speed shops locally that customize cars. I have heard of people who pay to have tail pipes and other car parts chromed. Maybe I can have mine done at the same time as a larger project.
