Welcome fellow ...er..Ottawan! (I had to look that up; I've lived here for 26 years)
Woodworking and photography indeed sounds like a fantastic combo.
Looking forward to your posts and photos.

Re: Rolleiflex 3.5F - taking the shutter out.

You are a brave, brave man ;-> That was one fiddly job.

Great idea looking into your own cameras first, before tackling this.

Cheers!

Merry Christmas!

And a blessed 2020 to all the friendly and talented folks here.

Alas, not much snow yet here either. Supposed to go up to an unseasonal +6C on Friday.

Well, that's one thing ......

...to do with all those cheap old cameras. I don't recall seeing this here (or anywhere) before.

Apparently 10 are (well, 'were' - the website's old) functional and can be fired remotely.

Cheers!

Nice strap! It suits the camera case very well.

That patch is very nicely done too.
