Durst L1840 10x10 Enlarger Restoration

[ic-racer]

I have a thread going on the repair and restoration of a Durst L1840 10x10 enlarger that I recovered from a screen printing establishment. In case anyone is interested.

The enlarger came to me with a coldlight head and I re-mounted it to improve its performance for fine-art printing.

I'm currently trying Roscoe gels in green and blue for split contrast printing. Seems to be working out very well.

Quite the project. I hope you resolve your last issues without further problem.

I was looking back at some old threads I started (like this one) and noticed the images were missing. Here is a picture of the enlarger mentioned in the first post taken in 2009 and a recent picture taken in 2021.
