A few years ago, well maybe 7 yrs, I built this 20″x 20″ view camera with the intention of making 16″x 20″ tintype portraits. Life intervened and here we are all these years later, resurrecting the monster as I dive head first into tintypes again. I’m working out a few necessary modifications to its design, simplifying the movements and redesigning the plate holder, hopefully I’ll be able to take it on the road with me…I’m not getting younger as far as I can tell!
