Added to the body. There will be two holes drilled where the cross marks are. That way I can screw this part on.
Now I have to weld the film plane together.First a square piece of aluminum is cut with a 60mm square opening in the middle. Two sides are also cut and welded on.
The walls are very thin on this part so I have to make to welds as fast as possible to stop the parts from melting and/or warping.
Now its time to make a back door and hinge. I cut three pieces of aluminum tube and weld them onto the body.
This part will become part of a viewing window that Will be added to the back door so I can see the frame number of the film.
This is the pressure plate that will keep the film flat. The two leaf springs are made of a saw I cut up and then bent into that shape. The plate itself is a very thin sheet of brass I cut and drilled a hole in.
This parts are what will be holding the film spools. Its made of a steel shaft, a brass film seat, a M3 screw that has been rounded and had a slot filed down the middle and a small piece of brass that has been hammered into that slot.
