15 ft table?
I can technically do this if I need, I have an 8 ft board I can use in such a manner by running the film up one side and most the way down the other, although thankfully I never needed to.
What did you buy ?
picked up a good amount of 6,5x9cm cut film sheaths inserts, allowing me to use sheet film in the older style glass plate holders.
(I've considered seeing if I could bend some anodised aluminium sheets)
Can I ask where you found them? I only have one, could do with a couple of extras (I've considered seeing if I could bend some anodised aluminium sheets)
I made a bunch doing exactly - but regular aluminum spray painted black.
Might have to try my hand at this
Could be a fun project!
Kopiko Indonesian instant brown coffee powder. Mighty tasty on breaks during below freezing day hikes
Probably. Hardly any coffee in it and at least 6 different kinds of sugars.Is that the stuff that I refer to as "squirrel turd coffee "? Probably using incarcerated squirrels! Kinda like Iowa poultry farms.
I walked a good hike today 18°F. French Press, Columbian pre-tarriff beans.
Probably. Hardly any coffee in it and at least 6 different kinds of sugars.
I usually take a French press as well, but plan on being lazy tomorrow.
Nope...not that stuff!
I was looking for some too, I have some spare 5x4 sheaths I was planning on cutting down to size.eBay UK, surprisingly. It was a box labeled "Kodak Cut Film Sheaths - 2-1/2 x 3-1/2 in. (6,5 x 9 cm)". In the past, I've also found some on eBay DE, sold as "Planfilmeinlage" or "Planfilmanlagen".
If you need dimensions, shoot me a message. I'm happy to help.

A big job lot of cameras, plate and film holders and more, it was at a camera fair and there was no room to go through all the box. There were 4 cameras.
This one had a strange homemade back that takes a 35mm slide, luckily I found the correct back was separate near the bottom of the box when I got home.

The camera is "Jasper Redfern Optician, Sheffield", he worked for Watson & Son in London, before setting up in Sheffield in 1895, his company went into voluntary liquidation in 1904.
The camera now has a new matching lens board, and a new ground glass screen, I found a more appropriate thumbscrew for the rise and fall. The carrying handle has parted, but will be easy to restitch. The bellows are in excellent condition for its age. I will give it light restoration, fit a TP shutter and appropriate lens.
The next tw cameras need a little work, a LAncaster 1/4 plate Instantograph, missing p its front standard, and a 9x12 ICA-Klappreflex Künstler Camera, missing its bits for fitting a lens. I'll pass this on . . .

And then there was a 4th camera, It was tightly packed and hard to look at, and what a surprise when I unpacked it. A Thornton Pickard All Weather Press CAmera, taking modern Half plate holders (so also 7x5).

Missing a lens board, this camera, is now ready to use, when I find an appropriate FL lens in a focus mount. The focal plane shutter was slow, sluggish, but with a little exercise it now works perfectly. I have a viewfinder for it somewhere.
