I recently purchased and took completely apart a Zone VI Camera in order to get ideas for building my own 8 x 10 camera.
the wood parts are no problem. And I have a machinist friend who can make many of the metal parts.
Nevertheless, if there are off the shelf parts available I would certainly take advantage of them.
Specifically, the rack and pinion system would definitely be easier to purchase than to have made. Boston Gear makes those systems. I am just curious as to the specifics for the ones used in the Zone VI camera.
Any other off the shelf products?
