The project is starting

Hi All,
I am starting my first camera build! This might be painful

I have a 90/8 super angulon and plan to buy a helicolid mount from china as soon as their new years is over.
The goal is a custom 6x9 as my first go at this.

My initial thought was a mamiya press 6x9 back with a home made M mount or buy an M mount if I can find one cheap.

As I looked around a bit I stumbled on 2x3 backs really cheap at KEH. All are Graflock and i like the idea for both price and low profile.

I have looked all over buy where can I buy a graflock mount to attatch the back to on my as yet unbuilt camera?

thanks

An old 6x9 folding camera with a lens/shutter past repair would be a good body for this.

However, 90mm on 6x9 is very close to the standard 105mm which is found on most 6x9 folding cameras. If I had that lens, I would want something a bit different to normal - possibly a hand held 5x4 camera.

If you want to go to 6x12 then the Holga 6x12 pinhole camera could be modified.

Whatever you end up doing, please update us as there are a lot of us interested in this sort of thing.

My current project is in a link below.
