 |
|
Hi Guys,
Now that Satin Snow aren't trading can anyone reccomend somewhere to get a new piece of ground glass for the screen of my Century?
The one I have is a bit dark/murky/cracked and would love to get something a bit nicer.
Also looking for a lens board (30mm hole) for the Century if anyone knows of a source.
Thanks |

| I can't help you with GG, but you can get undrilled 2x3 Pacemaker boards from mpex.com and skgrimes.com . Grimes will drill them, MPEX can't. |

Thanks,
I'll probably go with sk grimes for the board. I assume the 2x3 Pacemaker board is identical to the Century? |

Geert van den Broek in Belgium makes fine groundglasses.
See sheetfilm.be
Yes, the lensboards are the same. |

Ebay "brilliant glass" auction....I havent used him yet but he is a possibility! (search for GG)
Perhaps our fellow member Dave Parker can suggest a substitute, however, doubt anyone will be able to match the quality of his product, (thanks Dave)
Have a nice day......Bert |

I bought a 5x4 glass from him for a MPP Mk.8 Micro Technical which I was given, as a box of disassembled parts a few months ago. Good glass, cheaper than most, and arrived in just a few days.
