Need to stop it down to get the coverage, and have closer subjects

My new home made 8x10 sliding box camera. Constructed from 12mm plywood and all cut with a handsaw. The lens is a big C-Claron Schneider lens I picked up at a photography swap meet, and the wet plate holder is from Chamonix. I’ve just got to finish it off with a elasticated back made from MDF, and I’ll need to find some frosted glass/acrylic.

I’ll be shooting some paper next weekend, and when I’ve got a new big dipper tank built, I’ll be able to do some 8x10 tintypes!
