Can anyone identify this camera?

I bought a camera spirit from ebay and the camera it is pictured on is a strange one. Can anyone identify it? Looking at the photo there seems to be a compur shutter and lens combination of the type used on bellows cameras. I cant make out the make on the viewfinder. Perhaps its home made.

My curiosity needs satisfying!

heres a link to the picture http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?VISuperSize...

    Eventually worked out that the viewfinder says Fotoman and if you google that you find they make the cameras as well. It looks like the one in the image is the Fotoman 612, as in the link

    I managed to navigate to the page, and I have no idea what that camera is, I would tend to agree that it looks like a hand built medium format camera.
