4x5 Cold Light Enlarger from Polaroid MP3

[mckay3d]

When I saw an ad for a Polaroid MP3 copy stand for $15 I knew I had to get it. I had been thinking about a sturdy copy stand to make into a 4x5 enlarger using a Graflex 4x5 Graflarger back. So, the MP3 was kinda nasty and the baseboard painted black so I refinished the baseboard and cleaned up the stand after removing stuff that isn't needed for the new configuration. I did have to make a lens board for the 150mm El-Nikkor. So now I have to figure out what to name it. Polagraph? Grafloid? What do you think?
I'm open to suggestions...

Nice, thanks for sharing it looks great. Looks like the negative holder is part of the Graflarger, yes?

The Graflarger back does have the negative carrier. They were part of the Graflarger package. I also have a 6x6 carrier for it.

Doesn't play music, but it does hum a little...

Wow!
That looks awesome (and very sturdy!)! how tall is the copy-stand?

Polagraph sounds better!

Graphroidenstein? Polaflex?

I dunno. Have you considered installing an 8-track? I like music while I'm working in the Dunkelkammer.

Got tapes?
