These actually look pretty good; they are certainly better than my home made boards. They do lack a lack light-trap channel, which may be problematic, but it is definitely worth a try.

still looking. Me and wooden(especially pressboard/plywood like these stated above) don't mix too well. I'm in the field 95% of the time, so temperature and humidity fluctuations wreak havoc with me. I'm looking for a metal board.

I appreciate the tip though!

Is this board the same size as the early Speed Graphics (pre & Anniversary) ?

I've a Bakelite board that came with shutter, and an original unused wooden one stamped with a C (I assume for Calumet) drilled for a US shutter a touch smaller than a Copal/Compr #0,

If you can't find one I will possibly have a spare metal board, it's for Compur/Copal/Prontor #3 but had a plate mounted across it to adapt for a smaller lens at some stage, and I've literally just super-glued another undrilled aluminium panel to it about an hour ago .

Hey, Dan. I just got a couple boards from someone on the large format forum. One of them is metal board for a Calumet (allegedly. I don't own one) and I can't use it. I'd spare it if it fits your needs. Not sure what size it's drilled for (I have a speed. Barrel lenses). PM me if interested.

Here's a link to the thread there:
