A faithful miniature of a vintage dual-reel motion-picture camera mounted on a wooden tripod, sculpted from the visible features in the source image. The model preserves the pair of circular reels with hub geometry, the rectangular camera housing with a film-compartment opening, the lower front plate's row of circular holes, exposed film-transport gearing at the front-left, metal control knobs, and the tripod head with tapered wooden legs and pointed metal feet. The source image had a white occlusion over the right/center camera area; we did not invent missing details and mark occluded regions as UNKNOWN in metadata. You will receive a single watertight STL sized to 1:87 (HO). Use this prop for 1940s diorama scenes, HO model railroad layouts, or small collector displays. Print notes: support the underside of reels and any camera overhangs; resin prints at 0.05–0.1 mm will reproduce knobs and hubs best, while FDM at 0.1–0.2 mm produces sturdy, paintable parts. The package includes the master STL only; scale in your slicer for alternative sizes. Recommended finish: matte black body with metallic highlights on knobs and reel hubs to simulate a period studio camera.
Available railroad scales: Z (1:220), N (1:160), HO (1:87.1), S (1:64), O (1:48)
