Orbit Monorail anyone? In Grand Rapids.

Just thought I'd share this Shopgoodwill auction with y'all.

I almost bid on it but while reading the description, I noticed that it is "local pick up only". :bang:
So, I thought I'd post it here in case any of you folks in or near Grand rapids--I'm pretty sure we have some members there--are interested.

That looks exactly like the FrakenCamera I bought, hated, got my money back. It's a later copy of the 4x5 Kodak Master View. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

OF course, now I'm wondering if the rail is a single piece or two piece? And if it is and if tell them how to break it down if they will ship it...
Any thoughts, Wayne?

The Kodak Master View (FrankenKamera) had a one piece rail. Finding lens boards will be the biggest problem. The two standards come together at about 120mm. Not good for wide angle lenses.

The heads up thought was good. There are better cameras out there, often times for little or no money.
