I just bought the Sinar in question on Ebay with a bag bellows, one
lensboard and a 6-inch rail for £217 plus freight.  Presumably it will
arrive in a week or so.
This should suit my 47mm-105mm 6x9 lenses.
Hopefully I can connect a second 6-inch rail to the first to give me 12
inches, otherwise I will have to buy a 12-inch rail to use with Symmars.
I need to make a plywood lensboard cut to accept the small boards from my
Century Graphic.
