I’m the newest new guy as of about one hour ago. I bought a Graflex View 1 but it did not come with the tripod mount. Does anybody out here know where I can get one? I could probably manufacture one but would rather have one made for it.

I’m sure you’ll hear more from me. I’m new to view and want to learn much more.

Thanks,

the achilles heal of the GV is having a missing tripod head. There is a guy on ebay that was trying to sell a new version that he had made up for $99 each, but I don't think they were flying out the door. They do occasionally show up on ebay, but not offen. Also aquaint yourself with the rest of the this website and the articles on the Graphic View and the Graphic View II. The tripod mounts are not interchangeable between the models and the last thing you want to do is find the wrong one on ebay.

Thanks.

I will probably try to make something, I'm a handy guy. If I'm succesful I'll post my design on here.

Thanks for your help.
