I gotta say, $17 dollars (even with shipping) sounds pretty good. I 
might buy one, even though I don't currently own an OCT19 mount. I 
wonder how well they will hold up?

I took my P6->OCT18 adapter to a local machinist yesterday afternoon and 
he took a look at it. Unfortunately, he said he thought it would be 
about $200 to $250 apiece to make six of them.

It's possible that the P6->OCT18 adapter design that I have could be 
streamlined to be more cost effective to build. Maybe I'll take a look 
at my Pentacon Six to get some more ideas...

Terry, could you send me some pics of your P6->OCT19 adapter? I might be 
able to create some sort of blue-print/diagram that we can take to a 
machinist so that either adapter could be made more inexpensively...
