Lots of parts to cannibalise and repair other large DURST enlargers like the 138 and 184!
Columns, casted foot, springs, cables, chain driven table lift, wheels, handles, one huge condenser, the head mirror (!), the punching register device (!) and lots more!
There are some original construction plans too, genuine blue prints actually, I got from the manufacturer in Italy!
An ideal source of parts for repair or restoring an existing and in better state enlarger, the rolling cables are much sought after aswel as the gear for the table lift, no holes in the bellows.
The column has been sprayed with a silicone spry, and other part have been greased to protect them from the environment.
I still have the Schneider lens, but that one is scratched due to overly cleaning.
It's a bit rusty and dusty but nothing a handyman can't manage.
It has been salvaged from the Belgian Air Force...
It's for free and must go in one whole lot, as the building will be repurposed, just come and get the lot (it's heavy), otherwise it wil go to the junkyard!

It's located in Belgium...
