Polaroid 110A, what to do with it?

[mmikaoj]

I have an old 110A in a box somewhere. Originaly I had an intention to convert it to a 6x9 so some parts of it is allready removed, and a hole is drilled in the bottom for the film advance.
Well this project stalled a year ago.
Do you have any other ideas of what one might do with this camera? The 6x9 mod seems very hard to pull off...

There are three Polaroid Pathfinders here. A 110A Ysarex that I converted to packfilm. A 150 that will have an image window of approx 65x133mm for 70mm film, a 90mm Raptar on it that will allow folding. Not finished yet and not done much lately.
A 120 that should get a kind of 4x5 film enveloppes without changing the camera's appearence on the outside. No change to lens or image frame size. Possibly a 900's range-viewfinder implanted if I can lay my hands on one. There will be time for it one day.

I think that my MF rangefinders may be sold, the Iskra last ... but the Polaroids stay to hold the last bastion of film, the wider format. In B&W though, to develop, scan and print in house. After that on the mantelpiece as fine examples of US 60's industrial design.
