Gari, the board is not recessed but extended. Don't ask me why, but that's the way it is!

Except that it's all black, this is what I have: http://www.mppusers.freeuk.com/conepnl2.jpg

Hi Gari,
90mm sounds like a Speed Graphic board (I have one for sale - see other thread if that's of any use).
The MPP VII is 101mm sq with sharp corners; the MPP VIII is smaller and has rounded corners. The MPP user club will have details, also try S K Grimes - they have a good list of lensboard sizes etc.

The MPP board for WA is extended so that the front standard sits on the rear focussing rails, otherwise the standard sits in the gap where the rails should be and the front board and rails can't be dropped away to prevent vignetting.
