$450
I recently got my Nuarc 26-1K up and running so I am wanting to get rid of my UV box.
This unit is BIG and shipping is NOT something I want to bother with, so I'm looking for local sale (Texas region or close).
The setup includes 8 blacklight (BLB) fluorescent bulbs wired and mounted in 4 separate shop housings. I plug the four into a power strip that is then plugged into a GraLab timer (not included).
Also included is a 22x30" vacuum frame that is easily slid into the UV box for making contact prints - all sorts of alternative process usages. This is wired up to a vacuum pump in a equally DIY home-made manner.
But it works and works well. I've been using this unit for years and have made hundreds and hundreds of prints from 4x5 up to 12x20 size.
Lots of photos included.
Bostick & Sullivan sell the Edwards Engineered UV boxes much smaller than this for $1000+ and they are also CONSIDERABLY more beautifully made. But this is a fully functional and working unit and far cheaper.
Happy to answer any questions.
Asking $450 and I'll help load and even potentially deliver it.
I can tell you: a vacuum system is much easier to use for contact printing with alt-photo processes like albumen, cyanotype, carbon printing, etc. I know from experience at the workshops I attended.
I'm in Europe so a bit out of range for the "potentially deliver" option, otherwise it was sold to me ...
