For Sale Saunders VT2000 16x20 V Track Easel

[Three Owls]

I recently picked up a Saunders v track 16x20 easel without realizing I would need to convert my enlarger to a wall mount to make good use of it. Perhaps I will keep it and do that eventually, but I have a slew of other projects and so would be happy to pass it along.

In excellent condition. Asking $280 plus actual shipping from Taos NM.

If you're trying to print small on it (i.e. having just one easel), the Beselers with the angled columns, for example, won't let you center the paper because the easel's too thick (the easel can't be opened because of the hinge location without pulling it a good inch and a half maybe two inches away from the column). I had (and still do have) that problem with my old blue Beseler 45M. My new 45VXL doesn't have that problem.

Shipping to the mid-Atlantic states should be around $75. The easel weighs 27lbs by itself and measures 28"x24"x2 1/2" thick.
I had hoped to have just one easel and it seemed to me that it was rather too large to fit under my Omega DII at smaller sizes. It is rather larger than the 16x20 easels I used back in school. Unfortunately the wall would need to be reinforced itself as it is a shed wall and not super solid. I don't know that I would use it enough in the near future to justify the work so I'm offering to pass it along.

Yup, I flew up to New York and picked mine up and threw it in the belly of the plane to take it home!

I have this easel too, its really nice, I use it's smaller sibling the 11x14 all the time. Probably one of the best, if not the best regular easels money can buy, one step up from this would be vacuum style easels. I saw a completed auction price for this a few months back go for some crazy amount.
