woodenbox while lining up lens and adjusting focal length. lens mount is ldpe with a 38mm hole. the lens is m39 thread and the plastic has a bit of give so its a really snug fit.

rear view of wooden box. had to hack to the screen hole cos the workshop was shut and it was too hard to guess the focus as the numbers on the lens are no longer quite valid.

on the left is the one which takes the cheap praktica camera. the other takes my phone.

four views of woodenbox after a short encounter with the disc sander. this is actually a really nice size in the hand. the great thing about using wood is the body is the flexibility it allows.  and its really quick. it only takes about half an hour to rough out a body and drill all the relevant holes.
