Horseman 45FA Lens-board - Copal #0

An 80mm² lens-board for the Horseman 45FA field camera with a Copal #0 (34.6mm) opening.

This is modelled as accurately as possible from an original piece.

There are 2 sets of files here - one I originally did in PETG and then a later one that I printed in CF PLA.
