Some views of the pinhole camera I made. The table saw I have access to can't quite cut a square piece of wood so a bit of my time building this was figguring out ways around that issue. This was also the first time I'd really done more soldering than some little electronic parts so the brass work is a little messy, Silton showed me a few tricks and what tools to use so the next one might look a little better. You can find the first print I had made here.
Since a few people have asked I've replicated a bit about how I made the camera here..
The body of the camera is made from 1/2" birch-faced plywood. I bought a 1/4 sheet the stuff which is enough wood to make about a dozen of these cameras. Were I buying plywood again I'd buy birch ply, I believe it has a higher number of plys and no voids, this stuff had quite a few little voids that showed up on the cut edges.
The film guides and shaft for the film winder were made from brass rod, I bought a size that just fits inside of the hole on the end of a 120 roll.
The handle for the film winder, the shutter, and the lens plate are made from brass sheet, I bought the thickest kind my local hardware store had on hand.
The film winder itself was made by cutting a slot in both ends of the rod, in one end I soldered in the large piece you see on the outside of the camera, on the other end I soldered in a small piece that fits in the end of a 120 roll that will wind it.
The pinhole it self is made in the thinest brass sheet I could find, it's about the thickness of regular weight tinfoil.
The tripod socket is a metal piece, threaded on the inside with the 1/4-20 thread, the outside has teeth that grip the wood. A pilot hole is drilled and you press it into place.. it's reasonably stable.
The knobs that hold it together are some kind of brass bits I found in one of the lamp parts bin at my hardware store, I soldered some machine thread screws into them that mate up with a smaller version of the same kind of socket I used for my tripod socket.
I used an empty spool and a sacrificial roll of film to take measurements from to build the box with, I measured my holga to figgure out where to put the film number window.
Since the image size is ~2x a 6x6 I just use every other number on the paper backing when advancing the film (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12), I get 6 images per roll.
I glued (using yellow wood glue) and nailed the box together, then sprayed primer, then flat black on the inside, then polyurethaned the outside just for fun.
I hope that helps!
