A while ago I came across a very recently posted and fairly priced 2-cell Graflex bottom on eBay, which also happened to be in Norway (woo!). I decided to buy it with a "long term goal" to build a "miniflex" with a clamp and a slave unit.
But I guess that was my lucky day, because someone appeared on facebook selling 14 (FOURTEEN!) slave units 2 hours later! Should have 2 of them arriving next week
Will use the guts from the second one in my Graflex Shop replica once it arrives.
Here's a picture I was sent before he shipped them out. One of the ones he had for sale was slightly larger than the rest, so I grabbed that one! The smaller one has older style brass pins, but he was nice enough to throw in 4 newer style pins he had laying around as well.
The next morning I ordered a bubblestrip from WannaWanga and a clamp from Roman
Today I (kind of sloppily) cut up my leftover 2.0 grips, but this isn't something I feel needs to be all perfect and smooth
Now I wait for the rest to arrive!
I've never done of these threads before, apologies if I did something wrong. It's a pretty simple project, but I couldn't find anyone else doing these on here. Would love to see pictures if any of you have ever made a miniflex before!
If you don't know what a miniflex looks like, here's a picture I grabbed from google:
Cheers!
