While we keep hearing that Cosina was disappointed by the Voigtlander lens sales to Nikon rangefinder people, I still think they'd be interested in producing adapters if they had confirmed orders for them, rather than just producing them on spec, thus I still intend to contact Cosina, and I suggest that everyone here who wants one do the same thing. Perhaps multiple requests or inquiries might actually make a difference. It's certainly worth the effort. Additionally, does anyone here actually have one of these things? If so, it might be instructive to take it to a machine shop and inquire as to cost per piece to make up 5, 10, 20, 50 of the adapters, for starters.
The tool and die makers who machined an aluminum F2 wrist strap base for me would be a likely candidate. I'm going to show them an F mount and an S mount and get some idea of cost.
Of course, if they were going to produce them, proper dimensions for the thickness of the mount and orientation of the mounts with respect to each other to line everything up would be required. But one step at a time.
