THANKS for the endorsement SG. yes, this is a very nice contact print frame. I use it with my 8x10 negs as well as for proofing four (4) 4x5's at a time or medium format and 35mm. I love it. I have 4 of them ~ a few too many . . . I have been a pack-rat over the years and am running our of room in my darkroom.
When I lived in NJ and NY, I had my darkroom in the basement . . . a luxury I no longer have here in Tulsa, OK. I had to build my darkroom in the attic. Space is at a premium! If it continues this way, I am just going to have to move back to the East Coast, where most houses have basements!
As you mow know, 8x10 enlargers take up a lot of room. My Fotar chassis with a Chromega F head takes up a lot of space. Add to that two (2) smaller Omega enlargers and a 4x5 Durst and . . . . you can start seeing how I need a larger attic (or larger house) or a basement.
yup, i forgot to mention the vxl 10 joined two roommates, a 23Cxl and a DV2 that i recently added an aristo cl4500 & metrolux II timer to - and have figure out how to make prints with aaaarrghhh!!!
just need to to do a little tinkering and giggling and ??? and it will be great.
laugh more, smile more.
