New Toy
I imagine no one here will care much besides SteveDallas, but I thought I'd share my Valentine's gift with ya'll.
Tower Stereo Camera, Gottingen-Westar 35 mm f3.5 dual lenses, shutter speeds from B to 300, manual focus, using standard 35 mm film cassettes. Got it for a great price because the guy who was selling it thought it didn't work. Seems it won't cock and fire properly...unless you have film in it to keep tension on the film advance sprocket, probably by design. I haven't put film in it yet, but I was able to keep the sprocket tensioned by hand, and voila! She is a fire just fine. High-tech circa 1956, the year of my birth.
Expect a new deluge of homemade anaglyphs soon.
