Some fun history about the place: it was originally built in 1876 and on Saturdays they do tours where you can even see it in operation. It's a working museum.

It's the only grist mill in Washington that has maintained it original structural integrity, mills with stones, and is water powered.

Awesome! I've never tried large format. I had a cheap medium format TLR (Yashica) that had bad light leaks. Like what you're seeing on the right of your image, maybe, but all over the image. Did you develop and print these yourself? They look great.

Medium format is really fun to shoot too! I've also got a Lubitel 166b (also a TLR, and a HELLA cheap camera) that I snagged awhile ago and it needed a lot of work too.

The artifacts around the edges of the image here I think might either be some light leaks I still need to fix or from my bodged scanning.

I develop my black and white film myself as it's WAY cheaper to do it myself, I'm planning to start doing cyanotype prints soon as I think that would be really cool too.

Fixing larger older cameras is really fun IMO, it's complicated for sure but they're WAY more simple than newer cameras.
