Free Kodak 5x7 hard Rubber Tank. All tanks are gone.

[spoolman]

I'm clearing out unnecessary equipment that has been taking up space. This tank was part of a lot of darkroom equipment I purchased of eBay a few years ago but I couldn't find any use for it so I am offering for free + shipping costs in Canada and the U.S. It is a bit dirty but should clean up well. Photos are attached. It is available on a first come, first served basis to be determined by the date and time stamp on messages.

Will you, please, PM me with cost of shipping to American zip, 28215?

I need more of these for my line and even without a top, if it's in good condition, it would be an asset.

Cheers,
Eli.

Just a heads up that "mail" from Canada is moving very slow into the states. I've got an order that was due July 10 and so far
nothing yet. Perhaps UPS might be better.

Hi Wayne: thanks for that.I know Canada Post is slow. It took almost 2 weeks for a camera that needed repair to go from Toronto to Buffalo Grove Illinois. It seems that all parcel delivery companies,both Government run like Canada Post and U.S.P.S. , as well as Courier companies such as UPS.DHL, Purolator and FedEx, are experiencing extreme volumes of parcels which they are not prepared for.

Also it depends on how busy the Customs people on both sides of the border are busy and staffing levels during these times is not consistent. But I'll still give UPS a try and see what the costs are.

Hello Eli: it will be sometime tomorrow before I can get that shipping quote for you. The Canada Post website crashed late yesterday due to the amount of traffic on it. By the way, what size of tanks are you using for your processing line ?. If they are 4x5, I have 5 Kodak Hard Rubber Tanks to get rid of along with 5 floating lids plus a spare. I can let you have them plus the 5x7 tank for $40.00 CDN and I'll pay half the shipping cost to you.

Please consider this offer and if it is not for you, I'll still send the 5x7 tank to you.

Hello Eli: shipping charges for the 5x7 tank will be $27.00 CDN.

Cheers, in light of the 4"x5" offer, I'll ask for a second Shipping quote on that set of tanks.

I know Canada Post and USPS are a little slow, but I'd also like a quote from the as well as UPS.

Having that many tanks will allow for a proper line, including a dry hanging tank, pre-wet and second fixer, so n addition to the tanks In using now.

Cheers, I hope you are enjoying Good Health, Happiness and your Photography,
Eli

Hello Eli: I can get you shipping quotes from canada Post and UPS but it will take a few days.

OK, no rush.

Your offer is very timely, lately; I've been wondering about if my little welder is powerful enough to do Flux-Core Welding of stainless steel and how much material I'd need to make six to eight stainless steel tanks.

Kodak tanks stack better and nesting, stainless steel tanks are too involved, IMO, and that's without lids.

Cheers,
Eli

Hello Spoolman,

I am located in Montreal Canada and have been looking for a tank for my Korona 5x7 camera. I would be willing to pay for the tank as well as for shipping. Could you provide me with a quote?
