I think what you really meant to type (or should have) is "ain't no way
you want to depend on *any rangefinder* in a custom construction unless

other RFs.


So far I've found the Linhof rangefinder to be clearly more robust than the
Kalart.

They're all gonna need a lot of TLC to get working. On the other hand, it
ain't exactly rocket science, and I don't see how a micrometer even enters
the picture. The correct cam for the lens? Yes.


He's going to have to make the cam and arm. That's fussy beyond words.
