I came across this on FB in a posting in the large/medium film camera group. The poster was showing images he had take with this camera he had made. A few others on the group had purchased from as well.
Messaged him about some info & it was clear he was a DIY camera junkie, knew the details, etc.
So I took a chance & ordered on from him. It was ~$150 + ship and it arrived a week later.
It takes 5 each 6 x 14cm images on a 120 roll. Since it uses the shot count numbers on the backing paper, it is not usable on 220 roll film. This image is slight larger than what I could have gotten on my Toyo 4x5 with a roll-film back and much lighter It uses the same 90mm that I use on my plastic 4x5.
Will hopefully run a roll or two through in the next few weeks.
As it looks assembled. The item behind is used for checking helicon focus setting WITHOUT film in it.
Here are the component pieces
Here is the link to show how it is used
