Robert: The lens is the 105mm f/4.5 Kodak Anastigmat (coated) mounted into a Flash Kodamatic Shutter (with ASA Bayonette flash tit). I don't have an exact measurement for the brass tube to sleeve the centering spindles - have not yet done that part - but the sleeve will have to be larger than the cross slot in the 120 spool and smaller than the center hole. About a year ago, in a hobby shop, I saw an assortment of brass and aluminum tubing put out by a firm called K&S. This was a large handfull of "shorts" 4" - 6" long in a plastic bag. I think I paid less than $5.00 for the bag. AFIK, this is a standard product from K&S and should be available at any hobby shop carrying their metals line. It seems I am duplicating Gene Johnson's efforts, but its fun anyway and takes little time. I will keep everyone on the NG posted on the Tourist progress - though only the winding key and centering spindles have to be done.
