Century graphic + wide angle: how to hyperfocus reliably?

[darinwc]

I would like to setup my Century Graphic 2x3 with a 2nd lens. in this case a 47mm wide angle.
I can setup a scale focus and mark it for the hyperfocal.

My problem I am having is reliably setting the lens to the same place on the track each time.

The graphic cameras have stops on the track for the lens standard, but they are usually setup for the lain lens. If I get another set of stops for the 2nd lens, will they be able to mount on the inner track? I seem to remember the inner track being a little different.

Failing that, is there any other way to reliably set the front standard on the same point of the track?

As I remember, both sets of stops go on the same track & you flip the stop you're not using out of the way.

Actually you can get away with using just one stop if the track etc isn't very worn, so if you only have a pair use one strop for each focal lenght. I knew there was something I fogot to bring to Turkey when I came back from the UK 10 days ago - the Infinity stops

From the Pacemaker manual. Yours may or may not be the same.

In some instances an infinity stop for the wide angle lens will be located behind the front standard on the short section of the sliding track.

Hmm I guess I answered my own question. I checked the inner rails and it does look like they will accept another set of infiniti stops.
