Hi, Please, what lens board is compatible with my Crown Graphic and an old Ilex-calumet 215mm ( No. 3 Acme Synchro ) ? Maybe a Toyo #3 ? Thanks very much for any assistance.

A Pacemaker Graphic board drilled for an Ilex #3. That's what. Pacemaker boards don't match anything else.

What size camera do you have? Remember that there are three sizes of Pacemaker Graphics, 2x3, 3x4, and 4x5, each with its own size of board.

Thank you. My Crown G. is a 4" X 5". So I imagine I would need that machined and some screw ring separately attached. I thought the board would be threaded.

Any suggestions as to an easy place to purchase? I will look in some used equipment shops in NYC.

www.mpex.com and http://www.skgrimes.com also sell Pacemaker boards. They're thin metal, can't be threaded.
