Welcome Scene1,
Interesting background, we’re glad to have you in our forum. Not a lot of people out there with experience on a BNCR. I knew Martin Hill as well. I remember he told me a story about some people who bought a camera from him (don’t recall which camera, probably a GC) as they wanted to use it to make hand cranked films. After their first film they came back to him very disappointed that it “didn’t look hand cranked”. Kinda funny actually. Martin helped them out with removing the flywheel. The results made the buyers happy!
Regarding the BNCR that you used, do you remember the serial number? Any photos or stories of its use would be greatly appreciated!
