Hello All, I am new to the list.

I am a wet plate collodion photographer living near Washington DC.

4 years ago I built my first camera, just a simple fixed box wet plate 
camera. Since then I have built backs for other cameras, the most recent 
being an11x14 Kodak Century #8 studio camera.

I would like to ask if there is any online info on making a cold light head 
for my 5x7 Elwood. I want to put a cold light head on it.

I will need one large enough to use on an 8x10. I am looking for an 8x10 to 
replace the 5x7 and have been unable to find one in my area at a decent 
price. I hope to eventually come across one thats for sale and not in 
California to avoid the high shipping costs.

Any suggestions??  Is it worth it to make a cold light head or would I be 
better off buying an Arista?
