I need to test the filter settings on my dichro s head... the best i can come up with is to make a modified version of the lambrecht based test strip maker...

my thought is that i break open a file folder, on one end i make two cuts, say 1.5" wide and then cut 14" long strips from an 11x14 sheet of printing paper, and then weave it through the slits...

1. should i include pieces of file folder under neath the masking so as to preclude any issue of bendin the focus plane of the focused image as i pull it through..

2. do i do individual strips for each contrast setting? j

strip one, constrast grade 0, 10 different time sections 2 seconds to 20 seconds
strip two, contrast grade .5, 10 time sections 2 seconds to 20 seconds

and d so for each of the setting lists i have,,, the beseler one that came with the dichro head, what comes with inkpress paper, and what comes with arista and foma paper...
