My sincere apologies if this is an inappropriate post for this forum. If not, I am looking for the smaller lens board used by the "baby" graphics (2 1/4 x 3 1/4). I'd be putting a lens with a Copal 0 on it.

I'm in New York City and a trip has come up that I want to take a second lens on... alas, time is a bit of an issue. Otherwise, finding someone who could drill out one from an older lens might be the way to go. Thanks.

Any type of sales posts are generally discouraged here. Most of the members here aren't photo dealers anyway.

copal 0 requires a 34.6mm mount hole.

check all the major and some minor photo stores such as lens & repo, adorama, b&h.

FWIW, Lens & Repro had one left... large hole (bigger than copal 1) but Jeffery also found an enlarger mount that I'll attach somehow.

Trip down memory lane going in there :)

These carbon fiber lens boards from "durotomik" are superb (I have a set of 3):
