Argus STL 1000 in Kirkwood and Caffenol

I was testing out this camera with film to see if I want to use it on Argus Day, Argust 21.
Lenses were an Auto GAF F f:1.9 / 50mm and a Montgomery Ward branded 85 - 205 zoom in m42 mount.
Last Sunday morning it went with me loaded with a fresh roll of Kodak 400.
The firewood pile contained remnants of the storm damage I had a few days earlier. A guy did stop by later and was happy to take it off my hands.
I headed into downtown Kirkwood and the area around the historic Kirkwood Station.
The roll was finished off a few blocks away at the old cemetery along Geyer Road just North of the Missouri Pacific tracks.

I developed the filmstrip with my normal recipe for Caffenol, using readily available safe household ingredients. This process renders all films as monochrome, and I generally add the sepia tone afterwards.

Conclusion? I think the focus is a little out of calibration, something I want to test and fix before any more film in this camera.
