If you can't find an 'official' back you may want to consider purchasing
and old 8x10 Universal with a shot bellows & etc. and remove it's spring
back and nail it (attach in any seemly fashion) to the 12x12 opening in
the stand camera.

8x10 junkers can be found for less than $100. All you need is the back
end. Ground glass can be found or made cheaply.

Thanks for that tip. Actually I have an old 8X10 back I may try to
adapt, but I was looking for the easy way out.
