SOLD!
I had built a DIY based on the plans from Red Rock that I used with my XH-A1. I've sold that camera and since have no need for this. It works perfectly and would do well for someone who doesn't want to throw down $1.5k plus on a 35mm adapter. It may not have all the bells and whistles but I've used on on some paying gigs and the quality and image I got was superb.
Here are some videos shot using this adapter:

It has a variable speed for the spinning glass and I chose to put the battery housing on the outside for easy change of batteries, I know the M2 was a pain to change batteries with. It comes with a Nikon mount. I'm also including the Cinevate 72mm Achromat lens. I'm including the rail mount but you may want to modify it to fit your specific setup but fit fine on my IndiRails system.
I'm asking $350 which is what I have into it to have built not counting the labor and what I paid the guy to build it. Below are some pics. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.
