I like the idea of a curio cabinet; we all have old stuff laying around; could have our own version of a museum or an antique store, however you'd want to refer to it; I have a whole cabinet drawer full of old camera gear for bookends - have over ten bookcases full of books now I hardly ever look at and a lot more in boxes in the garage - gotta love old cameras and books!

That is very cool! I like the idea you can change them out. Cheers.

I would assume that is what he did. How else would he attach the cameras to the boards, super glue?And if you use the tripod mount hole with a 1/4-20 countersunk fastener from the bottom you can change out the cameras as desired.

I hope that the camera on the right is not a leica.

In that case you will be happy to know that it is not a Leica. I hope that the camera on the right is not a leica.

Thanks everyone for your compliments, and I might add that no camera's were rendered unusable during this project.... if film ever makes a startling comeback, the camera's can promptly be put back into use (but I ain't holding my breath).
