Thanks for clarifying (I didn't notice those two trays on the lower shelves). I guess they slide out somehow. I've always wondered how stacked trays work without making a mess....but sounds like...
Great examples, both very encouraging. Mark, are you only using a single tray (besides the holding tray in the kitchen)? I guess no one knows when Nova will be shipping their slot processor again,...
Recommended. Would like to see more of her work.

Thanks, Merg. Wish I was in the Bay Area to see the exhibit. Always loved her portraits. Didn't know there was a 2018 retrospective exhibition-related book, Only Human (price is rather daunting in...
Jim, what tripod and head are you using now (if you no longer have the Reiss and the Kessler Crane is up for sale)? Just curious. BTW, bought the Kessler v2 receiver and quick release plate (my FLM...
It's been several months and wish I could say I'd wired up the power relay but one complicating factor I hadn't taken into account, I think. And that is the enlarger has the Power Lift controller...
Not to sidetrack your question, but may I ask what timer are you going to use with the head? I have the Super Chromega F chassis and haven't had any issues working with the negative carrier or...
Sounds like a good deal, hadn't thought of calling but maybe since you just inquired they'll be more responsive to emails. How long do you think it'll be before the brushes you ordered get made?
I'm with the two Jim's on this, as well (a cart or other means to transport 11x14 and up goes a long way).
Michael, this is good to know about the 7880 (and similar) large format Epson's. Sounds like they can do it all. I'm still in the research phase of older vs. a new (or newer) printer. Things like...
Hi Bruce, thanks, I appreciate your reassuring comments. Great images on your site. A bit torn between Epson and Canon. What do you use for your color work?
Hi,
I know this last post is 2 years old but is a printer like the 7880 (priced similarly but having seen more use) still a reasonable deal in 2023 for black and white prints and digital...
Hi Bruce,
Good to hear from you. Recalling your setup from the photrio.com thread. Sounds like the Time-O-Lite might be another alternative -- I recall reading a bit about them but thought it...
Hi Erik, might it be possible to post a photo of your box when you get the ground wire attached?
Thanks
That picture helps a lot. As well as the advice to wire as normally open.
ic-racer: There wasn't any information about wiring included (no PDF). All I have is what's on the product page (URL...
Many thanks to both Erik and ic-racer. I did pick up the power relay and enclosure corresponding to the McMaster-Carr part numbers. It's a Deltrol Controls (#20239 83) single-pole double-throw relay...
Will beat the hell out of multiple scans on a smaller Epson (V750/850) and stitching, which I found to be a royal PITA. I work at a university and have access to a 12000XL, and previously a 10000XL...
Mine came with an EPOI timer (Ehrenreich Photo Optical Ind.) but it's not accurate and don't know if or how to re-calibrate and without the power relay (originals are rare and expensive on KHB) the...
I have one w/Dichroic head and am trying to figure out (have questions) how to wire a power-relay to use with a modern timer. What kind of timer are you using with yours?
See:...
Looking good.
Thanks, Randy, for the info on the Howard Bond Beseler 45V-XL 8x10 conversion. Mine came with the wall mount kit which I placed about 22" off the floor. I don't have very high ceilings. The Beseler...
Curious about that Beseler 45V-XL 8x10(?) conversion in the back (I think you've mentioned it before)
Hi Daniel,
Sounds good. Jose was nice to deal with.
One thing (I'm still in the process of setting this all up) but it looks like I might be having an issue around vignetting at smaller...
Even though the 240mm f5.6 Rodagon wasn't listed among his standard sizes for the Beseler 4x4 lensboards he understood exactly what was needed having worked with large lenses for Beseler's...
Hi Daniel,
Sorry for the delay, had to look it up. The board was from Jose at https://customphototools.com in Portugal. I think I heard of them either here or over on photrio.com.
Would be interested in this as well. Renato, could you post a photo of your table?
Thanks.
Good news. I mounted the custom 4x4 board made for the 240mm 5.6 Rodagon on the enlarger and turns out it has enough extension so that I don't need to remove any material from the 'enlarger throat'. ...
Hi Randy,
I have the Rodagon 240mm 5.6 and a custom 4x4 lens board to fit the wider barrel. I was following a 2016 thread by Neal Chaves as to how he did it -- by removing some material from the...
Not to get too far off-topic but what lens are using with the 45v-xl 810? I'm setting up a wall-mounted 45v-xl now with 8x10 (all-white) LED head from Klaus Lundsgaard in Denmark. Filters will work...
Looks impressive, price is very reasonable. Maybe they'll make adaptors for other enlargers or can be DIY'd. If it works as advertised would look forward to an 8x10 solution. From the tech specs...
Great info. I appreciate the link.
Thanks!
re. "poor man's JOBO": When processing 4 sheets of 8x10 in the 16x20 Unicolor drum what do you use to separate the sheets vertically from each other? I have one of the little rubber separators but...
Hi,
Would be good to know what number works since searching by '327817' of the one on Amazon only yields the out-of-stock Philips version. However, trying 'SOX35 low pressure sodium bulb' I did...
Didn't realize she had passed away (although it was clear she was struggling with health issues). Haven't managed to keep up. Yes, love their 12x20 portraits.
I've long been an admirer of Jennifer Trausch's work with the 20x24 Polaroid camera on the road. Her series "The South" is a gem. Wish she had been able to do more.
...
Ah, had to think a bit -- but have come across her name before -- I believe from Mark Steinmetz's 2014 Time Magazine 'Off the Radar' article on 'Nine Women Photographers of the Northeast':...
She often seems to use the 150mm SW Nikon.
Yes, I was wondering about the Chamonix case and had the same thought it just might work. Good luck! :)
Did you find a case for your Ebony? Did you ever hear back from Stone Photo Gear? I have one in a larger size Gator mixer bags and can't say I have any complaints but now thinking about the...
