I am rebuilding a Beseler 5x7 Diffusion Enlarger and need a little information. This is the floor standing model with the built in vignetting feature.

It was complete except for the wood table attachment that an easel would sit on. I have the base part that attaches to the post, and am wondering what the bottom of the table section looks like. I have the manual reprint and it describes it being held in place by a bolt/knob. The manual only shows a photo of the table from the top. As there is no hole on the base for a bolt, only a small V section I am sure there must be something else that catches or clamps on to the base. Beseler seems to have put a lot of engineering into this design based on the build quality of the other sections, I would like to try to match what they thought would work.

Thanks -
