Default Fuji GX680 11 battery pack

When I bought my Fuji GX680 11 camera body it came without a battery pack so I had to make one ,I have just finished my third attempt to make a professional looking one ,and I am pleased with it . then I was thinking what about a rechargeable one ,so I have ordered Sony EL3 battery bits so when they come I am building again , this camera has kept me busy and I have had to use my brain .so all in all I have had fun with this camera .Here is a 5x4 contact print I shot with X-ray film ,its not very good but it shows the battery pack I made ..
