Must make you consider putting wheels on your creation!

It's not big enough to warrant any wheels. The whole idea of making it
into a reflex was to obviate any need for a tripod.
I focus through the top half. The reflex viewer is attached to the
upper camera's ground-glass.
The lenses have helical focusing, and I shoot hand(s) held... hardly
ever used with a tripod.
It cost me around $500 to assemble... that includes the lenses at $300 a
pair.
