Nikor double-reel tank – I’ve never heard of such a thing. Comes with two adjustable stainless reels for cut film up to 4x5 inches, lifting rod. Stainless bands missing, I’ve heard you can use elastics. $100 plus shipping.

I was at a rummage sale and was idling looking through the tanks and saw one of these. The guy manning it at the time I was there said it was for long roll. If I knew it was for 4x5 I would have snagged it

I've also never seen or heard about one of these.

I note that this tank is seamed and crimped as opposed to the single reel 4x5 tanks which are one piece. (I own a very nice single reel version.) Is the tank itself manufactured by Nikor Products Co., Springfield, MA?

[Edit: Not looking to purchase this. Just curious and hoping either the seller or eventual buyer can answer.]

Wow! Wonder if that was a special order?

Considering it's not a quick fill top, that is going to take eons to fill and drain!

Presume you don't mind that I saved the picture.

Not that it means much given my 4 years in LF and not much more generally but i've never seen one
very neat
and for $100 quite a steal, it would seem

I'd have thought $300 at cheapest

still have yet to use my single. want to but always forget.
