a bunch of 3% quarts of big lots hydrogen peroxide and some citric acid from whole paycheck
 
Found a fixer-upper Ansco 8x10 with three backs (8x10, 5x7, 4x5) mostly broken ground glass, and a frame that needs gluing.
My next purchase will be glue :angel:
 
I found a Pentax diopter lens adapter at a flea market for 2$.

A Linhof Synchro Compur shutter off Ebay, I'm assuming it's a #0 size from the photos, I have a 150mm Linhof Tessar in a Compur #1 which looks quite different, The rear cell is there but not the front, I was initially guessing it's from a 100mm f3.5 Planar but the rear cell looks quite thin more like a Tessar so most likely it's actually a 105mm f3.5 Tessar shutter.

20 rolls of Fomapan 400, 10 120 and 10 35mm36, 50 sheets of Ilford classic fb 91/2x12 and 30 sheets of the art 300 same size, 500 ml RO9 one shot, some 500 ml of Fotospeed WT10 , liter of Firstcall paper developer and liter of Champion stop bath
 
A Minolta XM reflex body. Not pristine by any standards but a decent working and solid body. The wind on is the usual Minolta smooth action and the meter corresponds quite well with my Nikon F6 when set on central weighted operation. It is in for a full service (CLA) at present to bring it back as close as the engineer can, to be fully dependable.
 
Just won a black OM-1n...
 
Filter set and waist level finder for Minox B.
 
Over the last few months I've been loading up on m42-mount lenses to use on my T90. Lots of SMC Takumars, a few Helios variants, Jupiter-9, Industar, etc. Without delving into the Zeiss Jenas, I think I've run the table. (I would gleefully post the whole blinking list here, but I'm on my tablet.)
 
Fujifilm GX680 kit. Wow what a big camera!!! Pictures just don’t do the size justice. Neat camera though and should work well for the project I bought it for. Really like the 68 format.

A couple of replacement rubbers for my Canon F1 eyepieces.to prevent the lenses on my glasses from getting scratched.
 
A few rolls of Ilford 120 (D100, FP4), stirring rod, small graduated cylinder (a long overdue purchase), small archival album for postcards, a few archival binders, and one of those "rocket" blower things (which I like a lot).
 
Canon ix lite APS & 50mm lens, and a Petri 7 rangefinder (still en route from Japan - I hope...)
 
more blotter paper ( I press my calotypes between blotter to dry after each stage of the process )
a small sketchbook... I shouldn't admit this in public but I'm trying to learn how to draw, and am practicing by sketching the scenes that I'm photographing, among other things.

Thats a good idea, I'm not talented in drawing at all, ... so no more making linoleum prints or etchings by me.

Based on my understanding of colloquial English terms, this brings rise to a very disturbing mental image :unsure:.

galoshes?
either way i think his eyepieces will be safe

10% and 3% hydrogen peroxide and 1lb of citric acid
 
Four rolls of 35mm HP5+ from The Lab when I picked up some processing a few days ago. I shot part of one roll this am documenting the ongoing construction at SFU. Starting to wonder when the footprint of the University will begin expanding outwards; it's starting to look a little dense in places.

The Canon F1's have a metal screw in eyepiece over which you stretch a replaceable rubber covering ring, so don't get excited, anyway, we don't call what you have in mind "rubbers " in the U.K.it's a North American expression.

Raincoats?
 
I've never liked rubbers and wouldn't trade my eyepieces for the opportunity to engage in that form of play. Rubbers, while still demanding skill, still subject the players to the deal of the hand, either good or bad. By playing Duplicate, where each team gets to replay the identical hands delt at each table, removes the luck of the deal and reveals one's true skill at Bridge.
