Hey Romian, in the second iteration I modeled a plate to hold the lens in position. I wanted to keep my mod non-destructive but had to cut off the rivets that are holding the plate. All in all, what's the point of a conversion if you can't be sure about the focus? In my Instagram stories, you can see progress instagram.com/soexpired I post updates time to time. The big bang release is close ;)

I mean i have to test it with film, it looks fine on the ground glass. Thanks for the link gonna follow this !

The project is on hold

You did a good job. Your version doesn’t look too complicated. I purchased one this year but think what your doing looks simple but a very promising work in progress. Buy a printer, get it done.

Hi Derek! This one was an MVP. Obviously MVP is good neither for sharing, nor for selling. I'm soon going to review version 1.0 I'm working on. Stay tuned!

So Expired still nothing:(

I'd love to see them too

Great work! Has there been any updates?

+Kro Gon I'm working on the more robust design now. And also more flat so to speak. I know it's been a while, but the update is coming!

Hey Lubomir! It is 1222 grams.

Thank you for the information. Can't wait to see the final result!

It's on hold. My priorities shifted.

Nope

At least one thing you're right is that I should finish that project. I put all the pieces back I though of buying the soooo expired polaroid roll or two to give it the last shot, because in order to maintain an acceptable thickness one should remove at least one metal frame from the inside. I think I'll do an update soon. Thanks for sharing the link!

it seems to me that the project is dead unfortunately ... pitty :/

@@norbibxl that is really sad. especially considering even the files are not shared so nobody can keep trying it

@@KeigoMoriyama you know the proverb about a gardener's dog for me, it's such a situation ... pity :/ but maybe someone else will do this project

@@norbibxl hope so!

@@norbibxl if interested at least i made a video on how to use a 120 film on this type of camera and the slt file is available ;)

+袁杰 it's on hold and not ready to be given away or sold

I'm just asking to respect my decision not to release a product that is half-done and causes light leaks and severe challenges when trying to print and assemble.

It's on hold and I haven't bought my own 3d printer to continue

@@SeniorSoftwareVlogger do you need any help? i have the 3d printer

Thank you for asking, though that doesn't work that way. It's an iterative process. Design-print-try-repeat and ultimately requires some time that I spend on other more important things as of today.

I will share the model. Wait a bit for me to prep it

Hey, I haven't figured out a nice solution for mounting a film holder myself. The one you see in the video is flimsy and leaks light.

It seems we´ve been going the same route. The film holder mount must be as shallow as possible in order not to obstruct the rangefinder. I did manage to make one which was sturdy enough, but the rangefinder was extremely uncomfortable to use, so I guess I still need to find another approach both smaller but still strong enough. I am also thinking about printing a kind of clip-on part for the focusing rail to automatically lock the lens to the new infinity position.

I designed this clip as well, pretty straightforward. Now I'm thinking of using rubber bands to hold the film holder. Then only the light leaks will be left to be resolved.

Rubber bands are one possible solution. However I was thinking about making flexible clips to hold down the filmholder. One in the middle section of the closed end and one on both sides of the end where the film holder is inserted. Velcro tape (the soft side) could be used as light trap around the film holder to prevent leaks. How many printed parts does your design contain? My current version consists of two; the main part plus the part which holds the film holder, but I am checking if I could get it all to print at once except for the clips which press down the film holder.
