request for off-list discussion of pinhole view camera with homebrew lens optionlens

Hello:

Excuse the partial diversion from pinhole - I am thinking about what to do
with an 18" x 24" bellows I picked up - definitely pinhole first, but I
would like to have the option of experiementing with a lens - and the only
affordable way would be a homebrew lens.

Is there anyone here who has any experience with simple 2-element lenses
with insertable Waterhouse stops willing email off list about some of the
basics of such a camera?

Thanks

Murray
