I've been sourcing parts for a screen accurate pair of the Macrobinoculars Luke uses on Tatooine in ANH. This has not been an easy task, as the parts needed are extremely rare. Basically they are all just old camera parts stuck together to make the prop, with a few plates connecting them.
Parts needed:
2 x Kalimar Six/Sixty Cameras
1x Eumig Servomatic Camera
1 x Seagull Camera
1 x Bell & Howell Two/Twenty Camera
Plus an aluminium plate to mount the lenses, and a transition box for the viewfinder.
Here are the parts I have collected so far. I'm waiting on the Seagull and the lens plate. I will also need to make a clip so it can be held on a belt. There are a few parts on this that no one has been able to indentify as yet, so I will not be adding them til they are found.
