Victor,Yes, probably a bit ambitious, but I assume doing quite a lot of research. I spent time in the British Museum studying a very elegant clock (Ward, 1802) that had a gear train of only six gears that still included a power maintainer, but reproducing it would have taken years. I have built harpsichords, have access to strange things like an early 19th Century hand gear cutting engine, and am around precision fabrication, but seeing how others solved problems does save piles of time.
I was prompted by this pile of 30s-70s Zeiss, Schneider, Rodenstock, and Nikon/Pentax/Canon lenses- I hate good old stuff going to waste.
Have you seen the recent Discovery Channel documentary on the project to make an authentic reproduction of the first Wright plane? The approach to problem solving as industrial archeology is worth seeing.
Still, I'd love to see drawings or close up photos of the cinematographe and learn the sequence of it's development.
Isn't "cinematographe" a lovely old word?
Cheers,
Bambi B
