This thread is pretty much due to the request of @ChrisR who basically asked for a commentary on the rebuild of this french 13x18cm Tailboard bellows camera that i was recently given.
( Original details here: OFFICIAL I HAVE A NEW (FILM RELATED) TOY THREAD!! | Page 276 | Talk Photography
I'm not really very good at this type of thread so forgive me for the unproffesionalism and the fact that I'm starting with the almost finished result before posting the earlier stages. ( I never did conform to the norm! )
In brief , the outfit is already very close to being usable.
It remains fragile even with the minor repairs that i have made and without doubt obtaining photographs from it will prove to be a challenge, however it will only be used occasionally , the rest of the time I'll have it on display ( hopefully sat on its original tripod if it is ever located )
So here is what it looks like as of this afternoon.
