Can others edit my Photos
Photos NOT OK to edit
Some would say this design came from "Camp-Hack-O-Mo", but this baby will have all the features I need to move and shoot 120 film! The openings you see in shots 2, 4 & 5 will have a red plastic covering. I believe the remaining components can be plastic making the finish easy!

(Oh, and that nickname? Well, that one comes from my toolmaking days. Crusty fixes to a tool like this was said to come from Hack type training lol!)

I read the first part, then this, then went back and reread the first part. I'm still not fully understanding what you're doing? Are you converting a Polaroid back to shoot 120 roll? Aren't there readily available inexpensive backs that would do it??? I'm missing part of the story.

My apologies in not fully describing things. First off, your right on in that others out there have tackled this before. Searching on YouTube resulted in couple nice set-ups. In my case, I wasn't after a product level solution but rather a Cheap-Azz kit but workable (retired money can be tight).
Yesterdays post contained what I though could be done while todays post showed real results. I'll be back at it tomorrow and it should be an easy finish. Maybe with luck I'll be snapping shots Thursday and developing film tomorrow evening.
