These guys are in Slovenia and make beautiful, handmade wooden pinhole cameras. The pinholes are beautiful - precise and smooth, optimally-sized. I've got the 35mm one from their first campaign. It makes really lovely images and the overall design and function is sound. There were some issues, however, that seem to have been addressed and corrected for a second Kickstarter campaign. The film sat very tightly in the camera and it was sometimes hard to advance/rewind, and often the film would scratch. They've fixed these issues, added a field-of-view marker on top, and a stop for the lever that acts as a shutter. Though I'm happy enough with my 35mm, I regretted not getting a 6x6, so this time around, that's what I got for myself. And an early bird, too, so I got a discount
Anyway it's a gorgeous camera. Did I mention handmade wood? And a great way to get into pinhole photography if you haven't already.
And no, I don't get anything out of this - I just thought I'd share in case anyone was interested.

I think this was maybe 20-30 seconds:

And an idea of what the 6x6 can do in the hands of a skilled photographer:
