That's nice. I like it. Is there a thumb screw to hold the blade in? That brass knob looks like it's too far back for that.
The look of the white blades is growing on me. I may have to do that some time.
What did you use for blade film? In that last picture, it almost looks iridescent.
in those pix, the blade screw is a set 1/8th inch set screw. I've since replaced it with a small socket head screw. I've also replaced the button heads with set screws so they sit flush. the more I work on this one, the more I add to it. the brass knob was just for decoration, but didn't look right.
the blade is an experiment.
I attached it to my drill and sanded it at high speed with 400 grit sand paper, while slowly moving the sand paper up and down. it gives it a slight spiral grain. then stuffed about 8 wraps of cellophane in. No other blade film used.
The result,
It doesn't show in the photos, but the blade has an iridescent/purple core when lit up. at least on the white k2. on a royal blue lux III, it's a darker blue core.
Looks good, Arkai! That definitely has the Graflex look!
