Geed Evening, Mike,
In spite of your "huge, clunky" comment, what's wrong with another 23C, one in good shape? They're practically being given away nowadays. Unless your Beseler is truly battered, bashed, and beaten-up, it's hard to imagine that it can't be aligned adequately.
When this topic comes up here, there's usually a consensus that getting an enlarger that will take at least 6 x 7 (preferably 4 x 5) is almost always the best long-term approach--unless severe space limitations are a factor.
