$10 Modified 4×5 Wet Plate Holder

Scored two Graphic Film Pack Adapter #1234 from the big auction site and decided to see how easy it would be to modify it for wet plate work. After some judiciously sized and epoxied scrap aluminum sheets I went to try it out.

A test shot this afternoon passed the light fastness test.

Not bad for a $10 investment.
