Recalibrating Enlargers

DF · Apr 5, 2016

Something happened to an Omega enlarger I use after it was moved from one location to another. The long "up/down rail" isn't straight and/or the box W/ three color dials might be off kilter or something, so some guy who can fix it will come out. What is a reasonable price to be paid for such a service?

DF, it's kind of hard to guess a reasonable price when we have no idea where you are. Maybe if you update your profile and give us a hint.

As ic-racer indicated this is most likely a do it yourself fix. Post a few pictures and we might be able to help more.

If OP is in the Los Angeles area, I could help him or point it to a great repairman that makes home visits, but the OP does not post his location.

I would show you how to do it if you were local.

I'm in Chicago. It's a community darkroom I get 2.5 hours per week working with it. 'In no position to start tinkering around.

Dear DF,

My assumption is that it's the Chicago Community Darkroom. There are several members there that are quite good at that sort of thing. If you and they would like, I would be happy to lend them my Versalab Laser alignment tool. Send me a personal message if there is interest. The folks at the darkoom have my personal email as well.

Thank You all for for assistance. It's not the Chicago Community Darkroom but a Chicago Park District Field house location.
